Electrical neurostimulators may look alike and even work similarly to each other, but differences in how their energy is delivered can have significant effect on a therapy’s effectiveness. Nevro, a Silicon Valley company, has developed a high frequency spinal cord stimulation technology that avoids some of the common problems associated with other neurostimulators.
The Nevro Senza implant delivers signals at 10 kHz, which is much higher than competitors’ products. This frequency is too high to elicit paresthesia, a condition commonly described as a tingling feeling in areas regulated by the electrically stimulated nerve. Practically speaking, the technology allows people to go about their day and to not have limitations on driving a car, for example, while receiving constant pain management therapy.
At CES 2019 we got to learn more about the company’s technology:
