Effects of L2-L3 SCS on excitatory responses of lumbosacral spinal neurons to noxious colorectal distension (CRD, 60 mmHg, 20 s, n=24).
L2-L3 SCS | Spontaneous activity (imp/s) |
Latency (s) | Total responses (imp) |
Duration (s) |
---|---|---|---|---|
Before | 4.9±1.5 | 1.9±0.3 | 417.6±68.0 | 37.5±4.4 |
During | 5.1±1.4 | 2.6±0.5 | 296.3±53.6* | 31.0±4.2* |
After | 6.0±1.6 | 1.6±0.1 | 521.6±91.8 | 40.3±5.8 |
P<0.05 compared with corresponding activity of before and after SCS.
