Visual Analog Scale Pain Scores, Perceived Pain Reduction and Morphine Equivalent Daily Dose based on Type of Spinal Cord Stimulator and Sex. Blue stars note significant difference for HF-SCS at that time point compared to baseline. Yellow stars note significant differences for LF-SCS at that time point compared to baseline. Black stars note significant differences between HF-SCS and LF-SCS at that time point. Confidence intervals which cross the dotted red line are considered nonsignificant. Arrows denote continuation of confidence interval out of graph limits. a Visual analog scale pain score distribution by type of stimulator at baseline, post-implantation, 3 months after implant, 6 months after implant and 12 months after implant in females. b Visual analog scale pain score distribution by type of stimulator at baseline, post-implantation, 3 months after implant, 6 months after implant and 12 months after implant in males. c Perceived pain reduction distribution by type of stimulator at baseline, post-implantation, 3 months after implant, 6 months after implant and 12 months after implant in females. d Perceived pain reduction distribution by type of stimulator at baseline, post-implantation, 3 months after implant, 6 months after implant and 12 months after implant in males. e Opioid use in morphine miliequivalents by type of stimulator at baseline, post-implantation, 3 months after implant, 6 months after implant and 12 months after implant in females. f Opioid use in morphine miliequivalents by type of stimulator at baseline, post-implantation, 3 months after implant, 6 months after implant and 12 months after implant in males
