<p>Pre-surgical psychological evaluations (PSPE) are required during the spinal cord stimulator (SCS) implantation process, but there is no standard protocol for SCS PSPE. In this study, we assessed the concurrent and predictive validity of the Stanford Integrated Pyschosocial Assessment for Transplantation (SIPAT) compared with patient-reported measures and election for SCS implantation. This study used prospectively collected data at the time of PSPE from <i>N</i> = 222 patients at a Midwestern academic medical center. We collected SIPAT scores and Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information Systems (PROMIS) scores, and recorded receipt of permanent SCS implantation as a binary (yes/no) outcome. The SIPAT correlated with patient-reported outcomes of Anxiety, Depression, Fatigue, Sleep, and Pain Interference in the expected direction. The SIPAT was a significant predictor of election for permanent SCS implantation when accounting for age and pain diagnosis, such that individuals with higher SIPAT scores were less likely to elect for surgery. Exploratory analyses showed that the SIPAT Patient Readiness subscale and patient-reported Anxiety and Depression PROMIS scales correlated with election for SCS surgery. Results of this study demonstrated validity of the SIPAT in a novel population, patients with chronic pain referred for SCS implantation.</p>
