Finally, there’s an FDA-approved nonpharmacological treatment for painful diabetic neuropathy. Patients can try it before they decide, in a one-week temporary trial to evaluate their individual relief.
How it Works
Nevro HFX is a small device placed under the skin that delivers electrical pulses which disrupt pain signals to the brain.
What an endocrinologist has to say about Nevro HFX
Finally, there’s a treatment option for PDN patients refractory to conventional medical management (CMM).
SCS is a well-established approach to managing chronic pain
Nevro HFX uses 10 kHz Therapy to activate inhibitory neurons in the dorsal horn, calming abnormal pain signals to the brain.
Proven to effectively treat chronic pain for over 10 years in 100,000 patients. Now proven safe and effective for patients with diabetes.
At 12 months, the infection rate of just 5.2% (8 of 152 implanted patients) was consistent with reports for other SCS procedures.4
