Peripheral Nerve Stimulation

Superior, Wisconsin

Peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) is a minimally invasive, outpatient procedure that implants a small electrode near a damaged nerve to disrupt pain signals before they reach the brain, often replacing pain with a mild tingling sensation. It treats chronic, localized pain (e.g., knee, shoulder, nerve damage) by reducing reliance on medication.

Peripheral nerve stimulation uses a small wire electrode that is implanted near the target nerve or structure using ultrasound or X-ray guidance. Some systems are used as a trial to confirm effectiveness and then a permanent system is re-implanted. Other systems can be used over the course of a couple of months and removed with extended pain relief, sometimes up to a year or more.
