Comparative StudySpinal cord stimulation in diabetic lower limb critical ischaemia: transcutaneous oxygen measurement as predictor for treatment success.
to evaluate whether transcutaneous oxygen tension (TcpO(2)) measurements could be used as a specific prognostic parameter in selecting diabetic patients for permanent device implantation. ⋯ diabetic patients with significant increase of TcpO(2)and pain relief during a 2-week test period may be successfully treated by long-term SCS unless they have advanced autonomic neuropathy.
