I’m telling y’all neuromodulation is the future and I’m so excited to be getting into the field at such an optimal time #MedTwitter #DBS #DRGS

I can’t be the only person at the gym who does bicep curls and thinks “Decorticate, decerebrate” with each rep 💪😤 #MedTwitter

Quick break from step studying for #AAD2022 🙌😍 and I found a Levain in Boston :,)

8 hours that I’ll never get back but hopefully it was worth 😅

Our new Case Report published a few weeks back using DRG-S for chronic low back pain refractory to surgery, other SCS and focal neuropathic pain after spinal fusion! Super cool case with crazy results showing the versatility of DRG-S! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35587521/

Pt selection is huge for SCS! Here is a short video I put together on a recent article that discussed this important topic 🙌

New paper out in RAPM! DRG-S IPGs could last years beyond initial estimates by using low frequency dosing = less surgical revisions and possibility of a smaller IPG! Regional Anesthesia & Pain Medicine rapm.bmj.com/content/early/…

Our new DRG-S paper out showing the utility of low freq stim to attain quality pain control while also saving IPG voltage over time. Too early to say but could extend IPG life beyond the 7 year estimates from the ACCURATE Trial

Journal club next month with KP and KBC to discuss our intermittent DRG stim randomized controlled feasibility trial as well as other breaking research for all things DRG!

Some cool stuff recently: -Medical Student Orthopedic Society abstract accepted 🦴🤌 -Regional Anesthesia & Pain Medicine paper published -ASCO abstracts submitted -M4 away apps being sent out -Signed up for step 2 -Finished neuro and FM rotations -Super Bowl festivities in DT PHX -Bombed down some runs in Flagstaff

Absolutely loved rotating at Phoenix Children’s! I can’t thank the resident and faculty there enough for being so welcoming and letting me get so involved in the OR!

Our new paper out on DRG-S for chronic mechanical shoulder pain s/p reverse shoulder arthroplasty + revision. ROM at 0-5 degrees in all planes to almost 90 degrees with DRG-S! And a video on our YouTube page to see/hear his results journals.lww.com/aacr/abstract/…
