Overview
Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is an effective treatment for patients with chronic pelvic pain. The investigators will evaluate how safe and effective closed-loop spinal cord stimulation is in treating these patients; closed-loop spinal cord stimulation is a more novel method in delivering spinal cord stimulation that controls energy output of the device based on real-time feedback on how the device is stimulating the spinal cord.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:

Exclusion Criteria:
- Major untreated medical comorbidities (uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, severe obesity, uncontrolled cardiopulmonary disease, etc.)
