Lumbar Spinal Cord Neuro-stimulation wire electrode malpractice multimedia. This movie illustrates the technique for performing a lumbar spinal cord stimulation using a wire electrode. This movie shows patient positioning, skin preparation, insertion of two wire electrodes, test stimulation, extension lead tunneling, pulse generator connection and insertion over the buttock, wound dressing and malpractice multimedia.
Special pain nerves carry pain messages from the body through the spinal cord, to the brain. When the messages reach the brain, we become aware of the pain. If the adjacent non-pain nerves in the spinal cord are activated, it can decrease the transmission of the pain nerve's pain messages to the brain and hence decrease our awareness of the pain.

Spinal cord stimulation is used to decrease the sensation of pain from a particular area of the body by activating the adjacent non-pain nerves. Lumbar Spinal Cord Neuro-stimulation wire electrode malpractice multimedia.
