- Allocation: RandomizedIntervention Model: Crossover AssignmentIntervention Model Description: Subjects will undergo 3 sequential 2-week dosing stimulation programs [1.) continuous, 2.) 1 minute on: 1 minute off, and 3.) 1 minute on: 2 minutes] in randomized order and double blinded fashion for a total of 6 consecutive weeks.Masking: Quadruple (Participant, Care Provider, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor)Masking Description: Participants will be blinded to which stimulation program they are receiving during each 2 week cycle. The Investigator who is also the care provider will be blinded to both the stimulation they are receiving and the sequential order they are given in. The outcomes assessor will be blinded to the sequential order of the stimulation programs each participant receives.Primary Purpose: Treatment

Intermittent Dorsal Root Ganglion Stimulation (DRG-S) dosing consists of preprogrammed cycles during which stimulation is delivered with standard DRG-S parameters alternated with periods during which no stimulation is being delivered. In this study the investigators propose to evaluate therapeutic efficacy of Intermittent DRG-S at 1 minute on: 1 minute off and 1 minute on: 2 minute off dosing in comparison to standard continuous DRG-S dosing and determine if there is noninferiority between the intermittent and continuous paradigms in chronic pain patients with permanent DRG-S implants.
