Figure 16. Percentage reduction (≥50% responder rate) in overall VAS score at week 24 from
baseline
The following table summarizes the proportion of subjects with a decrease in overall VAS score by
<30%, ≥30% and <50%, and ≥50% under each stimulation mode. Overall, more subjects
experienced a reduction in overall VAS score of ≥50% while using burst stimulation than while
using tonic stimulation (39 versus 32) and fewer subjects experienced reduction in overall VAS
score by <30% while using burst stimulation (40 versus 49).
