Résumé

Painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN) is a prevalent and debilitating condition, characterized by severe burning, tingling, and lancinating pain usually located in the distal lower extremities. In addition to manifesting with severe pain, PDN may also be associated with poor quality of life and sleep, mood disorders, burns, falls, and social withdrawal. The authors appraised the current body of literature for evidence on neuromodulation interventions for PDN. In patients with refractory PDN unresponsive to conventional medical management (glucose optimization and oral analgesic medications), there is level I evidence supporting the use of 10-kHz and tonic dorsal column spinal cord stimulation (SCS). Included studies reported significant associations between 10-kHz and tonic dorsal column SCS and superior analgesic outcomes, physical functioning, and patient satisfaction. Current level of evidence remains limited for other modalities of neuromodulation for PDN including burst SCS (level II-3), dorsal root ganglion SCS (level III), and peripheral nerve stimulation (level II-3). Some studies reported improvements in neurological physical examination, sensory testing, and/or reflex testing in patients undergoing 10-kHz SCS for treatment of PDN. In summary, the purpose of this review is to equip provider with important updates on the use of neuromodulation interventions for the treatment of PDN that is refractory to conventional medical therapy, with current level I evidence supporting use of 10-kHz and tonic SCS for PDN.
