Article Synopsis
- The study examines the long-term effects of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) on patients with chronic pain and critical lower limb ischemia (CLLI), focusing on clinical outcomes one year post-treatment.
- Results show that 74% of patients experienced improved clinical status, including pain reduction and enhanced mobility, along with increased microcirculatory blood flow (MBF) and metabolism in the affected foot.
- Negative outcomes were linked to factors such as high comorbidity rates, low transcutaneous oxygen measurements (TcO <10 mmHg), and prolonged duration of pain.

Unlabelled: Today, there are insufficient data on the dynamics of quality of life (QoL) in patients with critical lower limb ischemia after spinal cord stimulation.
Objective: To study the dynamics of QoL in patients with critical lower limb ischemia one year after spinal cord stimulation.
Material And Methods: QoL analysis was performed in 43 patients with critical lower limb ischemia using the SF-36 questionnaire before and one year after spinal cord stimulation.
Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term outcomes of spinal cord stimulation in patients with critical limb ischemia and to test the hypothesis that the dynamics of clinical changes one year after therapy depend both on the clinical determinants associated with the underlying disease and on factors related to systemic atherosclerosis.
Methods: This prospective cohort study included 56 patients with critical limb ischemia. All patients before and after spinal cord stimulation were examined in terms of the dynamics of their clinical changes using the Rutherford scale and transcutaneous oxygen tension (TcPO, mm Hg) in the affected foot.
Aim: To evaluate long-term outcomes of spinal neurostimulation (SNS) in patients with critical lower limb ischemia (CLI).
Material And Methods: Long-term outcomes of SNS were assessed in 52 CLI patients. Changes of clinical status were considered by using of Rutherford R.
