Feasibility of collecting objective data and exploring patient's experiences on physical activity in persistent spinal pain syndrome type 2 patients receiving spinal cord stimulation: A mixed feasibility study
Collecting objective data on physical activities and health status of PSPS Type 2 patients receiving SCS appeared feasible with a neuromodulation device and an activity tracker if the watch was correctly worn on the wrist or with clear instructions. The personalized data could add value to the standardized questionnaires evaluating holistic SCS outcomes. Participating patients and healthcare professionals supported a future prospective study with objective measurement tools in a similar design.
