THE EFFECT OF ELECTRICAL STIMULATION THERAPIES ON SPINAL FUSION: A CROSS-DISCIPLINARY SYSTEMATIC REVIEW AND META-ANALYSIS OF THE PRECLINICAL AND CLINICAL DATA COTTRILL E, PENNINGTON Z, AHMED AK, LUBELSKI D, GOODWIN ML, PERDOMO-PANTOJA A, WESTBROEK EM, THEODORE N, WITHAM T, SCIUBBA D SUMMARY: The authors performed meta-analysis on preclinical and clinical data to interrogate the overall effectiveness of electrical stimulation technologies (EST), including direct current stimulation (DCS), capacitive coupling stimulation (CCS) and inductive coupling stimulation (ICS) (e.g. CMF ™ and PEMF). The authors examined 17 preclinical and 16 clinical articles. Clinical studies showed that electrical stimulation significantly increases fusion rates (OR 2.26, p<0.001). Additionally, preclinical studies demonstrated that the fusion rates were higher in electrical stimulation treated animals (OR 4.79, p < 0.001).

STIMULATION SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASES FUSION RATES ”
