Abstract

Dorsal root ganglion stimulation (DRG-S) is effective in treating CRPS type I or II (causalgia) of the groin and lower extremities. Despite considerable efforts toward establishing biomarkers of pain, methods to measure pain are primarily focused on patient reported outcomes (PRO). This study will quantify changes in function, affect, sleep, and quality of life using a commercially available wearable device and correlate these objective metrics with patient-reported outcomes collected prior to and post permanent implant of a DRG-S system.
