Chemotherapy-induced Peripheral Neuropathy, Peripheral Nerve Stimulation
Conditions
Brief summary
To learn if peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) can help to improve pain in participants with CIPN.
Detailed description
Primary objective: To assess Pain intensity (NRS) scores in chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) participants before and after use of peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS). Secondary objectives: To assess changes in quantitative sensory testing (QST), gait testing, and skin punch biopsy to compare the integrity of Meissner's corpuscles (MC), pain disability using the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), pain interference using the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI), and Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) in CIPN patients before and after use of PNS.
Interventions
The leads are inserted through a needle. If needed, the study team may give participants anesthetic (for example, as a cream/gel on your skin and/or as an injection) to numb the area where the leads will be injected.
