Living with chronic pain makes even simple, everyday tasks difficult. Many treatments provide only temporary relief that may not be enough to get you back to doing the things you love.

Nalu PNS is a drug-free, FDA-cleared therapy clinically proven to provide meaningful, long-term pain relief.1  It works by targeting the specific nerves associated with your pain, so it can be tailored to your personal needs.

Target Your Pain at its Source

You feel pain when nerves from affected parts of your body send pain signals to your brain. PNS uses gentle electrical signals to reduce or interrupt those pain signals before they reach your brain—effectively relieving your pain.

Nalu PNS is used to target pain in:

Indications for Use: The Nalu™ Neurostimulation System is used to help manage chronic pain of the trunk and/or limbs in adults. As with all medical procedures, there are risks associated with the implantation procedure and with the use of the device. The risks associated with implantation and use of the system include, but are not limited to, pain at the implant site, infection, bleeding, nerve injury, movement or damage to the implanted components, changes in stimulation sensation, device malfunction, and the need for additional medical procedures.
In rare cases, serious complications such as paralysis, stroke, or death may occur. The system may be affected by electromagnetic interference from certain equipment or environments. Strong electromagnetic sources may cause heating of the implanted device, interruption or changes in stimulation, or uncomfortable or unexpected sensations. Do not use the Nalu Neurostimulation System if you have other implanted active medical devices, such as pacemakers or other neurostimulators, as interference may occur. Do not operate vehicles, machinery, or heavy equipment while stimulation is active, as sudden changes in stimulation may impair control and increase the risk of injury. Special care may be required after implantation of the Nalu Neurostimulation System, including following activity restrictions, avoiding excessive bending, twisting, or stretching, and carefully following your healthcare provider's instructions. Some implanted components of the system are MR Conditional, while external components are MR Unsafe. Certain conditions must be met to safely undergo an MRI. Always inform your healthcare provider that you have an implanted neurostimulation system before undergoing any medical imaging or procedures.
You should not use this system if you are pregnant, unable to operate the device, did not experience sufficient pain relief during the trial period, or are not a suitable candidate for surgery.
Be sure to talk with your doctor so that you fully understand the potential risks and benefits associated with use of the device. 
Please review the full Instructions for Use for complete details regarding indications, warnings, precautions, and potential adverse events. To report a serious incident or obtain additional information, contact Nalu Medical at +1-800-618-3402 or visit www.nalumed.com.

§The physician locator tool identifies pain management specialists in your area who have met certain qualifying criteria and are experienced with one or more of Boston Scientific pain management therapies. All treatment options should be discussed thoroughly with a pain management specialist.

Indications for Use: The Boston Scientific Spinal Cord Stimulator (SCS) Systems* are indicated as an aid in the management of chronic intractable pain of the trunk and/or limbs including unilateral or bilateral pain associated with the following: Failed Back Surgery Syndrome, Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) Types I and II, Intractable low back pain and leg pain, Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy of the lower extremities, Radicular pain syndrome, Radiculopathies resulting in pain secondary to failed back syndrome or herniated disc, Epidural fibrosis, Degenerative disc disease (herniated disc pain refractory to conservative and surgical interventions), Arachnoiditis, Multiple back surgeries.

The Boston Scientific Spectra WaveWriter™, WaveWriter Alpha™ and WaveWriter Alpha™ Prime SCS Systems are also indicated as an aid in the management of chronic intractable unilateral or bilateral low back and leg pain without prior back surgery.

*The Boston Scientific Spinal Cord Stimulator (SCS) Systems include the following: Precision™ System, Precision Spectra™ System, Precision Novi™ System, Precision Montage™ MRI System, Spectra WaveWriter™ System, WaveWriter Alpha™ System, WaveWriter Alpha™ Prime System.

Note: CRPS I was previously referred to as Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD) and CRPS II was previously referred to as causalgia.

The mySCS™ Go Therapy Controller is intended to communicate with and control the compatible Boston Scientific Stimulator.

Contraindications: The Boston Scientific Spinal Cord Stimulator systems are not for patients who are unable to operate the system, have failed trial stimulation by failing to receive effective pain relief, are poor surgical candidates, or are pregnant.

Warnings: With all medical procedures, there are risks associated with the procedure and the use of the device. Patients implanted with Boston Scientific Spinal Cord Stimulator systems without ImageReady™ MRI Technology should not be exposed to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Exposure to MRI may result in dislodgement of the stimulator or leads, heating of the stimulator, severe damage to the stimulator electronics and an uncomfortable or jolting sensation. As a Spinal Cord Stimulation patient, you should not have diathermy as either a treatment for a medical condition or as part of a surgical procedure. Strong electromagnetic fields, such as power generators or theft detection systems, can potentially turn the stimulator off, or cause uncomfortable jolting stimulation. The system should not be charged while sleeping. The Boston Scientific Spinal Cord Stimulator system may interfere with the operation of implanted sensing stimulators such as pacemakers or implanted cardiac defibrillators. Advise your physician that you have a Spinal Cord Stimulator before going through with other implantable device therapies so that medical decisions can be made and appropriate safety measures taken. Patients using therapy that generates paresthesia should not operate motorized vehicles such as automobiles or potentially dangerous machinery and equipment with the stimulation on. Stimulation must be turned off first in such cases. For therapy that does not generate paresthesia (i.e. subperception therapy) it is less likely that sudden stimulation changes resulting in distraction could occur while having stimulation on when operating moving vehicles, machinery, and equipment.

Be sure to talk with your doctor so that you thoroughly understand all of the risks, precautions, and benefits associated with the use of the device and what indicates, and contraindicates, certain patients– as well as the risks and precautions for the procedure. For complete indications for use, contraindications, warnings, precautions, and side effects, call 866.360.4747 or visit Pain.com.

Caution: U.S. Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.

Indications for use: The Intracept™ Intraosseous Nerve Ablation System is indicated for patients who have had chronic low back pain for at least six months, who have tried conservative care for at least six months, and whose MRI shows features consistent with Modic changes – indicating damage at the vertebral endplates has led to inflammation. Not every patient who meets these criteria is a candidate for the Intracept Procedure, however – in fact, there are specific characteristics indicating a patient should not be considered for the procedure.

Contraindications: Patients who are pregnant. Patients with weakened cardiac or pulmonary function, having an active implanted electronic medical device in the body (such as a pacemaker or defibrillator), being diagnosed with a systemic or local infection, or having an anatomy that could be damaged unintentionally while ablating the basivertebral nerve (based on your physicians’ clinical review). Patients who are skeletally immature – which generally means individuals under the age of 18 are not candidates.

Warnings: There are also certain risks and precautions regarding the procedure which you should be aware of before proceeding. With all medical procedures, there are risks and precautions associated with the procedure and the use of the device, talk with your doctor about what indicates, and contraindicates, certain patients for the Intracept Intraosseous Nerve Ablation System.
