Precision System Clinical Summary
Determination of the safety and effectiveness of the PRECISION Sys-
tem was based on available published clinical studies for similar
implanted spinal cord stimulation systems. The PRECISION System

output characteristics. Therefore, the clinical data from the published
literature described below represents evidence supporting the safety
and effectiveness of the PRECISION System for the treatment
chronic intractable pain of the trunk and/or limbs, including unilateral
