Abstract:
Selective high-frequency spinal cord modulation for inhibiting pain with reduced side effects and associated systems and methods are disclosed. In particular embodiments, high-frequency modulation in the range of from about 1.5 KHz to about 50 KHz may be applied to the patient's spinal cord region to address low back pain without creating unwanted sensory and/or motor side effects. In other embodiments, modulation in accordance with similar parameters can be applied to other spinal or peripheral locations to address other indications.

Claim (Index 156):
A spinal cord modulation system for treating a patient, the system comprising:\n an implantable pulse generator designed to generate a non-paresthesia-producing therapy signal, wherein at least a portion of the therapy signal has a frequency in a frequency range between 1.5 kHz and 10 kHz, and an amplitude in an amplitude range between 0.1 mA and 10 mA; one or more electrical contacts electrically coupled to the pulse generator and designed to deliver the therapy signal to the patient's spinal cord region; and an external power source, wherein the external power source is wirelessly coupleable to the pulse generator to transmit power to the pulse generator via electromagnetic induction.
