Nevro’s product is now the only spinal cord stimulation system labeled to treat the condition, the company said. 

The FDA approval came after the company conducted a 12-month study into its system’s treatment of back pain. The company said study participants saw improvements in pain relief, quality of life and a reduction in daily opioid use compared to conventional treatments.

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
