Many older patients are concerned about the repeat surgeries that are typically required with traditional SCS implants. Also, their larger implant size means a more invasive surgery. Nalu SCS Therapy ensures patients don’t have to suffer repeat battery-replacement surgeries due to our 18-year service life micro-IPG with a wearable battery.

SCS Clinical Profile for the Older Patient:
· Older, wants to avoid more surgeries and may not be a surgical candidate in the future.

Exciting collaboration in action!

Our dedicated team of Advanced Practice Providers (APPs) gathered over Zoom to discuss the latest clinical data from the COMFORT study. At Nalu Medical, we are committed to investing time into APP education, ensuring that our team is equipped with the most valuable and up-to-date information. Thank you Julie Widzinski*, Lindsay Carter*, and Casey Grillo*!

The insights from the COMFORT study are crucial in advancing our understanding and treatment of chronic peripheral neuropathic pain. To read the full study and learn more about our innovative approach, visit the link: https://rapm.bmj.com/content/early/2024/05/30/rapm-2023-105264

Patient BMI is crucial when selecting the most appropriate SCS therapy. Traditional SCS implants, with their larger size, may not suit all patients, especially those with a lower BMI. At Nalu, our innovative micro-IPG technology ensures patient comfort with a minimally invasive procedure and zero reports of pocket site pain in the clinical literature*. This makes Nalu’s implant ideal for low BMI patients concerned about body cosmesis.

SCS Clinical Profile for the Low BMI Patient:
· Thin or frail and concerned about comfort and body cosmesis.

We are thrilled to announce the publication of ‘Clinical study of a micro-implantable pulse generator for the treatment of peripheral neuropathic pain: 3-month and 6-month results from the COMFORT-randomised controlled trial’.

88% of patients using Nalu PNS achieved ≥50% pain relief at 6 months (n=46)

• Patients using Nalu PNS showed a 70% average pain reduction.
• Outcomes were consistent across all anatomical areas in the study, including shoulder, low-back, knee, and foot/ankle pain.
• Devices utilized Nalu advanced programming.

“For the first time, interventional pain management clinicians can confidently provide SCS-level outcomes with a PNS system that is proven with RCT data,” said Dr. John Hatheway, lead author of the study and interventional pain medicine physician at Northwest Pain Care in Spokane, WA. “In addition to significant pain reduction, the COMFORT study demonstrated meaningful improvements in quality of life, mood, and functionality.”

Congratulations to all of the authors!

These are Nalu outcomes.

A huge Nalu Academy thank you to Dr. Ali Valimahomed* and the Performance Rehab physicians for the educational collaboration this past weekend.

Our hands-on learnings and clinical conversations focused on an emphasis on the right approach for the right patient - including pathology, clinical presentation, treatment algorithm, and procedural approach for several different peripheral nerve targets.

Thank you to all of the attendees!

Nalu wearables are designed from the ground up as integral components of the system and are specifically engineered to maximize comfort and stability, to optimize patient compliance and therapy delivery.

87% of patients report that the therapy disc is comfortable - with over 24.5 million wear hours and Nalu patients out to 5+ years, it is clear that the right technology matters.

As physicians gain clinical experience with peripheral nerve stimulation of the superior cluneal nerves (SCN) it is increasingly evident that this sensory nerve group can play a very important role in localized chronic low back & buttock pain.

Common pathologies may include:
• SCN entrapment
○ In the osteofibrous tunnel of the iliac crest
○ Where the SCN penetrates the thoraco-lumbar fascia
• Injury to the SCN during surgery
○ Posterior iliac crest bone harvest
○ Lumbar fusion
○ Lumbar discectomy
• Altered biomechanics of adjacent fascial planes

We are extremely excited to highlight a recent publication in the Journal of Pain Research - Peripheral Nerve Stimulation of the Shoulder: A Technical Primer.

We believe that chronic shoulder pain is one of the best emerging indications for peripheral nerve stimulation and represents a patient population that is largely refractory to other interventional treatments over the long term. As we continue to push the collective body of evidence forward with the landmark COMFORT RCT, these technical how-to manuscripts are imperative supplemental efforts for the successful adoption of peripheral nerve stimulation.
