Trial spinal cord/peripheral nerve percutaneous analgesic electrical stimulation system pulse generator

This category includes temporary, externally powered devices designed to deliver percutaneous electrical stimulation for pain relief during a trial period (up to 30 days). Clinically, they generate electrical pulses via percutaneous electrodes placed in the epidural space or near peripheral nerves to target acute or chronic intractable pain, offering a test phase before permanent implantation.

Devices in this category are typically used as trial systems to assess patient response before committing to a permanent implant. They are regulated as external components of spinal/peripheral nerve stimulation systems and are not intended for long-term use, requiring careful evaluation of their operating parameters during the trial phase.
