Abbott’s Eterna Spinal Cord Stimulation System Receives the US FDA’s Approval for the Treatment of Chronic Pain
Shots:
- The US FDA has approved the Eterna SCS system, the smallest implantable, rechargeable spinal cord stimulator for chronic pain. The system uses BurstDR stimulation (SCS waveform technology) that mimics the natural firing patterns for superior pain relief
- The SCS technology showed a 23% more pain reduction over traditional waveform technology. The system can be wirelessly charged less than five times a year under normal use i.e., lowest recharge burden over other rechargeable SCS systems
- The device uses TotalScan MRI technology that allows for full-body MRI scans. The company offers iPhone integration for Eterna & its patient-focused mobile app displays real-time battery life & charging updates of the Eterna SCS system on a personal or Abbott-provided Apple device
