Access personalized Spinal Cord Stimulation care using advanced medical technology, supported by expert specialists and dedicated international patient services.
At Fortis Hospital, Spinal Cord Stimulation is performed using advanced neuromodulation technology and individualized pain-management planning. Established in 2011, the NABH, NABL accredited hospital in Kolkata, India has 400 beds and provides comprehensive spine, neurological, and pain-care services.
Spinal Cord Stimulation may be considered for selected patients with persistent chronic pain that has not improved sufficiently with conventional treatments. During the procedure, thin electrode leads are positioned in the epidural space near the spinal cord, while a programmable pulse generator delivers controlled electrical stimulation. Modern systems may use different stimulation patterns, including options designed to reduce or avoid traditional tingling sensations. Patients are generally assessed through a stimulation trial before permanent implantation.
