As with spinal cord stimulation (SCS), trialing is needed to test for efficacy prior to permanent implantation of peripheral nerve stimulation and peripheral nerve field stimulation. Though there are some similarities between SCS and peripheral nerve and peripheral nerve field stimulation, there are also unique differences in pre-trial preparation, patient selection, and particularly the techniques involved. This chapter discusses the various steps in successful peripheral nerve stimulation and peripheral nerve field stimulation trials.
