When a large team comes together for a Systematic Review, you hope it’s a prelude to something much bigger. Stay tuned, but for now: Open Access via @MSKPhysioJnl: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3716… @VUamsterdam @amsterdamumc @Griffith_Uni @erasmusuni @JointResearch @Sydney_Uni

Our Cochrane review on spinal cord stimulators for #backpain out today.
Bottom line:

-Adverse events (infection, re-operation) common
