Predictive Models for the Treatment of Recurrent Herpes Zoster Neuralgia Following Spinal Cord Electrical Stimulation.
Sponsor: Feng Gao
Summary
Shingles is a neuropathic disease caused by varicella-herpes virus(VZV) invading nerves and accompanying pain.Currently, the treatment of postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) includes medication and minimally invasive interventional therapy.In patients with herpes zoster neuralgia treated with spinal cord stimulation (SCS), some patients have satisfactory pain relief after surgery, but some patients have pain symptoms again some time after surgery. The reason for this difference in treatment effect is not clear.

Recurrence after undergo spinal cord stimulation
1. To investigate the pain relief and recurrence of patients with herpes zoster neuralgia after spinal cord stimulation treatment. 2. To analyze the risk factors related to recurrence after spinal cord stimulation treatment in patients with herpes zoster neuralgia, and build a recurrence prediction model.
