简介：国际神经调节学会（INS）已确定需要提供专家共识，以定义神经调节技术在适当患者中的适当使用。神经调节适当的共识委员会（NACC）的成立，以指导目前的做法和洞察未来的developments.Methods：INS执行委员会选择了国际科学界的成员，分析科学证据，为当前和未来的创新，并利用临床经验，以填补任何信息空白。NACC使用PubMed和Google Scholar来获取该领域的现有证据，并使用临床和研究经验来更全面地了解该领域的创新。结果：NACC已确定，目前批准的神经刺激技术和技术已扩展了我们以更有效和更具体的方式治疗患者的能力。尽管有这些进步，NACC已经确定了一些额外的有前途的技术和潜在的应用，神经刺激，可以推动这一领域的发展，扩大neuromodulation.Conclusions的适用性：NACC的结论是，神经刺激领域是一个不断发展和迅速变化的，将导致改善患者的访问，安全性和结果。
Introduction: The International Neuromodulation Society (INS) has determined that there is a need to provide an expert consensus that defines the appropriate use of neuromodulation technologies for appropriate patients. The Neuromodulation Appropriateness Consensus Committee (NACC) was formed to give guidance to current practice and insight into future developments.Methods: The INS executive board selected members of the international scientific community to analyze scientific evidence for current and future innovations and to use clinical experience to fill in any gaps in information. The NACC used PubMed and Google Scholar to obtain current evidence in the field and used clinical and research experience to give a more complete picture of the innovations in the field.Results: The NACC has determined that currently approved neurostimulation techniques and technologies have expanded our ability to treat patients in a more effective and specific fashion. Despite these advances, the NACC has identified several additional promising technologies and potential applications for neurostimulation that could move this field forward and expand the applicability of neuromodulation.Conclusions: The NACC concludes that the field of neurostimulation is an evolving and rapidly changing one that will lead to improved patient access, safety, and outcomes.
