Programmer Model 2740 English vii viii English Programmer Model 2740 Chapter 1: Therapy Overview This chapter is a brief overview of the Inspire system technology and icons. Introduction The Inspire Upper Airway Stimulation (UAS) system (Figure 1-1) stimulates the hypoglossal nerve, synchronous with respiration, to elicit a neuromuscular response at the base of the tongue and to maintain airway patency in patients with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The implanted components of the Inspire system consist of an Inspire Implantable Pulse Generator, the Inspire Stimulation Lead, and the Inspire Respiration Sensing Lead. The implanted system is programmed using the Inspire programmer. The patient uses a patient remote to turn therapy on and off and to temporarily pause stimulation. Patients may also be allowed the option of adjusting the strength of stimulation within a selected range. Stimulation lead IPG Sensing lead Figure 1-1. Inspire System Implanted Components Programmer Model 2740 English 1 Intended Use Inspire Upper Airway Stimulation therapy is intended to treat OSA patients meeting specific criteria. Please refer to the Inspire System Implant Manual for a detailed list of the indications for use and contraindications, clinical warnings/precautions, and clinical summary. Therapy Phases The Inspire therapy takes place in four phases: (1) implant procedure, (2) therapy acclimation, (3) titration, and (4) therapy maintenance. Implant Procedure During this procedure, the IPG, stimulation lead, and sensing lead are surgically implanted. The Inspire programmer is used to test the implanted system during surgery. Therapy Acclimation Therapy acclimation typically lasts for 13 months following implantation. During this phase, the device is activated and patients learn how to use the patient remote to increase the amplitude to a therapeutic level. Titration During this phase, patients undergo 12 polysomnograms (PSGs) or sleep studies, during which the physician determines the optimal stimulation and sensing parameters. Therapy Maintenance On an annual or semi-annual basis, patients return for an office visit to monitor therapy use and efficacy. Titrations are performed as needed. Terminology This section introduces and defines common terms used throughout this programming guide for setting parameter values, reading on-screen information, and evaluating patient responses. More information about these terms will be presented in later chapters. The definitions are divided into the following three categories:
General Therapy Terms Stimulation Parameters Sensing Parameters Parameters that appear on the advanced screen views of the Record Thresholds screen (page 41), Adjust Stimulation screen (page 44), or Adjust Sensing screen (page 51), are labeled as advanced parameters in the definitions that follow. General Therapy Terms Table 1-1 defines general therapy terms related to Inspire therapy. Table 1-1. General Therapy Terms Terms Definition Current IP parameters The stimulation and sensing parameters currently used by the IPG. The combined stimulation and sensing parameters are also known as the therapy parameters. Default parameters Default therapy parameters determined by the IPG manufacturer. 2 English Programmer Model 2740 Table 1-1. General Therapy Terms Terms Definition Functional threshold Lowest amplitude at which a significant tongue motion is observed, such as the tongue protruding past the lower teeth. Impedance Initial session parameters IPG IPG battery status The resistance to the flow of stimulation energy. Impedance measurements can be used to assess the integrity of leads, lead electrodes, and the leadIPG connection. The therapy parameters at the start of the current programming session. Inspire implantable pulse generator. The current state of the IPG battery. If the battery status is Low or Depleted, schedule an IPG replacement procedure. Sensation threshold The lowest amplitude at which a patient can feel stimulation. Sensing Sensing parameters Session
(programming session) Stimulation (Stim) Stimulation parameters Telemetry Therapy Usage Defines how the IPG determines inhalation and exhalation in order to time the delivery of stimulation. Therapy parameters that determine when the IPG delivers stimulation. A series of interactions between the Inspire programmer and IPG during which the therapy parameters are reviewed and/or modified. Mild electrical signals delivered to the hypoglossal nerve to elicit a neuromuscular response at the base of the tongue and to maintain airway patency. Therapy parameters that determine how stimulation is delivered. Short-range wireless communications with the IPG. When therapy is turned on, the IPG delivers stimulation based on the current sensing and stimulation parameters. The total time the patient has used Inspire therapy since the last programming session. Programmer Model 2740 English 3 Stimulation Parameter Terms Table 1-2 defines terms related to stimulation parameters. Table 1-2. Stimulation Parameter Terms Term Definition Amplitude The stimulation level measured in volts.Increasing amplitude will increase stimulation strength; decreasing amplitude will decrease stimulation strength. Electrode configuration The electrodes and polarities used to deliver the stimulation. Note: This is an advanced parameter. Patient amplitude control Pause time Pulse width Rate Start delay Therapy duration This feature allows the patient to use the patient remote to adjust the stimulation amplitude within predefined limits set by the physician. The length of time that the patient is allowed to suspend therapy if needed during the night. The stimulation pulse duration. Increasing pulse width will increase stimulation strength; decreasing pulse width will decrease stimulation strength. Note: This is an advanced parameter. Number of stimulating pulses delivered per second. Increasing rate will increase stimulation strength; decreasing rate will decrease stimulation strength. Note: This is an advanced parameter. The period between the time the patient activates the therapy for the night and the time stimulation begins. This interval allows the patient to fall asleep before therapy starts. The length of time that therapy is delivered once it is turned on. This should correspond to the amount of time the patient will spend asleep. 4 English Programmer Model 2740 Sensing Parameter Terms Table 1-3 defines terms related to sensing parameters. Table 1-3. Sensing Parameter Terms Term Definition Exhalation Exhalation sensitivity Exhalation threshold Inhalation Inhalation sensitivity Inhalation threshold The end of inhalation as determined by the IPG. The IPG detects that exhalation has occurred when a decrease in the sensor signal meets the exhalation sensitivity and threshold criteria. When therapy is turned on, the IPG starts to deliver stimulation when it determines that inhalation has occurred, and it stops stimulation when it determines that exhalation has occurred or when the maximum stimulation time expires. This parameter determines at what speed (slope) of decrease in the sensor signal the IPG will detect an exhalation. Increasing exhalation sensitivity configures the IPG to detect exhalations on more gradual decreases in the sensor signal; decreasing exhalation sensitivity configures the IPG to only detect exhalations on more rapid decreases in the sensor signal. This parameter controls the height that the sensor signal must reach before the IPG will attempt to detect an exhalation. Increasing the exhalation threshold causes the IPG to look for exhalations more often; decreasing the exhalation threshold decreases how often the IPG looks for exhalations. This parameter allows for the management of signal artifacts that can cause the IPG to detect extraneous exhalations. Note: This is an advanced parameter. The start of inhalation as determined by the IPG. The IPG detects that inhalation has occurred when an increase in the sensor signal meets the inhalation sensitivity and threshold criteria. When therapy is turned on, the IPG starts to deliver stimulation when it determines that inhalation has occurred, and it stops stimulation when it determines that exhalation has occurred or when the maximum stimulation time expires. Inhalation sensitivity determines at what speed (slope) of increase in the sensor signal the IPG will detect an inhalation. Increasing inhalation sensitivity configures the IPG to detect inhalations on more gradual increases in the sensor signal; decreasing inhalation sensitivity configures the IPG to only detect inhalations on more rapid increases in the sensor signal. Note: This is an advanced parameter. This parameter controls the height that the sensor signal must reach before the IPG will attempt to detect an inhalation. Increasing the inhalation threshold causes the IPG to look for inhalations more often; decreasing the inhalation threshold decreases how often the IPG looks for inhalations. Note: This is an advanced parameter. Programmer Model 2740 English 5 Table 1-3. Sensing Parameter Terms Term Definition Invert signal Maximum stimulation time A feature that switches the polarity of the sensor signal before the IPG processes it for inhalations and exhalations. This feature could be used to correct a situation in which stimulation is being delivered during exhalation instead of inhalation. The maximum time that stimulation is delivered during one respiratory cycle. This parameter also controls the length of the stimulation burst used for test stimulation. Note: This is an advanced parameter. Off period (Hard) A percentage of the respiratory period during which stimulation will not be delivered. The hard off period follows immediately after the IPG detects an exhalation. Off period (Soft) A percentage of the respiratory period during which the IPG may detect an inhalation if the sensitivity and threshold criteria are met.When the soft off period expires, only inhalation sensitivity criteria is used to detect inhalation. The soft off period occurs during the final portion of the hard off period. Note: This is an advanced parameter. Respiratory period The IPG measures the respiratory period from exhalation to exhalation. The respiratory period is used for the calculation of the off period. 6 English Programmer Model 2740 Therapy Icons Electrode Configuration Electrodes are used to deliver stimulation to the patient. There are three electrodes in the Inspire system, two on the lead and one that is integrated into the IPG case. The two lead electrodes are designed so that one center electrode is placed between the outer electrode. Table 1-4 describes the icons used to represent electrodes on the programming screens. See Electrode Configuration on page 48 for more information. Table 1-4. Electrode Configuration Icons Icon Description Negative lead electrode Positive lead electrode Unused (off) lead electrode Positive IPG case electrode Unused (off) IPG case electrode These icons are used to indicate the polarity of all system electrodes. For example, the default electrode configuration is shown in Figure 1-2. Outer electrode Case electrode Center electrode Figure 1-2. Default Electrode Configuration In this configuration, the three square lead electrode icons indicate that the outer electrode is positive and the center electrode is negative. The round, filled-in case electrode indicates that the electrode is off and not used in this configuration. Programmer Model 2740 English 7 Telemetry A telemetry icon (Figure 1-3) is used on certain programming buttons to indicate when telemetry is required to execute an action, such as Connect to IPG Configure IPG Test Telemetry Turn On/Off Therapy Test Stimulation Start Waveform Figure 1-3.

Programmer Model 2740 English 65 Adjust Stimulation To avoid confusion, it is recommended to turn off therapy when assessing new stimulation parameters during a device check. 1. Select the Adjust Stimulation button on the Home screen. 2. Select the Test Stimulation button to evaluate the patient's physical and sensory response to stimulation with the current parameters. Note: If a therapeutic amplitude has not been identified yet, start with the functional threshold value. Note: If patient control is enabled for the first time, start with the lower limit at the functional threshold and the upper limit set 1.0 V above the functional threshold. Note: When enabling patient control, it is important to thoroughly train the patient on the operation of the patient remote. 3. If desired, use the arrow buttons to select new stimulation parameters. Test and adjust stimulation parameters until the desired stimulation settings have been identified. Note: The Select a Preset button can be used to select the initial session, current IPG, or default values. 4. Select the desired stimulation parameters so they are displayed. 5. Select the Configure IPG button to replace the current IPG settings with the new parameters. The changes are automatically saved in the session report. Note: If the Configure IPG button is not pressed before leaving this screen, the parameter changes will not be saved to the IPG. If appropriate, therapy may be turned on to assess the performance of the new IPG settings. See Adjust Stimulation Screen on page 43 for more information. Check Waveform 1. Select the Adjust Sensing button on the Home screen. 2. Ask the patient to lie down, close his or her eyes, and relax. 3. Select the Start Waveform button to start the real-time waveform. Note: This will turn on the therapy and deliver stimulation based on the current IPG settings. 4. Review the waveform and note the direction of inhalation. If the patients chest moves out when the signal moves up, then inhalation is up on the waveform. 5. Select the Screenshot button to annotate and save the displayed waveform in the session report. 6. Repeat steps 35 for each sleep position if desired. Note: Do not adjust sensing parameters. It is recommended to do this only when the patient is asleep. 7. Select the Turn Off therapy button to stop stimulation and the real-time waveform. See Adjust Sensing Screen on page 49 for more information.

Figure 5-1. Completed Action Indicators Retain Records See Exporting Reports for instructions. Sleep Study The programming goals of a sleep study are to optimize stimulation and adjust sensing for a strong therapy response. A polysomnogram (PSG) is used to evaluate sleep quality. Sleep Study Overview Perform Device Check Attach Telemetry Head Confirm Stimulation Artifact on Chin EMG Determine Inhalation and Exhalation on PSG Activate Therapy Adjust Stimulation Adjust Sensing Review Final Parameters End Session Retain Records Perform Device Check See Device Check on page 65 for instructions. Programmer Model 2740 English 67 Attach Telemetry Head After the sleep technician wires the patient for the PSG, complete the following steps to attach the telemetry head:
1. Route telemetry cable over the patients shoulder. 2. Select the Test Telemetry button from the Start screen. 3. Move telemetry head around IPG to locate best location for a good signal strength considering all sleep positions. A green telemetry head status light indicates good signal strength An amber light indicates low signal strength Alternating green and amber lights indicate moderate or low signal strength Note: See Positioning Telemetry Head and Connecting to IPG on page 24 for more information. 4. Affix telemetry head in optimal position. 5. Confirm telemetry signal strength in all sleep positions. Confirm Stimulation Artifact on Chin EMG Once PSG recording has started, deliver a test stimulation burst and confirm that the stimulation is visible on the chin or submental EMG signal (Figure 5-2). Chin EMG Stimulation Figure 5-2. Stimulation on Chin EMG Determine Inhalation and Exhalation on PSG During biocalibrations, identify the direction of inhalation on the PSG flow sensors. It is recommended to have both a nasal pressure cannula and a nasal/oral thermistor to reliably determine inhalation from exhalation during the sleep study. Activate Therapy Wait for the patient to fall asleep before activating therapy. Select the Turn On therapy button and then select the Now or Delay button from the Start Therapy screen (see Figure 4-2). While waiting for the patient to fall asleep, review the patients sleep history to determine which sleep positions and stages contribute most to overall AHI. Target these sleep positions and stages to provide the maximum therapeutic benefit to the patient. 68 English Programmer Model 2740 Adjust Stimulation Stimulation strength is adjusted to provide a patent airway without disturbing sleep. The ideal stimulation amplitude is typically above the functional threshold identified during the device check. If therapeutic amplitudes have not been identified yet, start with an amplitude 0.2 V below the functional threshold. The purpose of stimulation strength adjustment during a sleep study is to determine the therapeutic amplitude and range. The therapeutic range consists of the stimulation amplitudes that provide effective and comfortable therapy. Use the following steps and Figure 5-3 to optimize airflow response to stimulation. 1. Select the Adjust Stimulation button on the Home screen. 2. If 5 or more obstructive events occur, increase the amplitude, observe the airflow response for at least 10 minutes, and reevaluate the effectiveness of the amplitude setting. 3. If the increased amplitude wakes the patient, turn therapy off, reduce the amplitude, and wait for the patient to fall back to sleep. Note: Stimulation strength should not be increased to the point that it disturbs the patients sleep. 4. Once the amplitude titration is complete, configure the final amplitude value that is both effective and comfortable. Update the patient amplitude control range to match the therapeutic amplitude range. Chin EMG Stimulation Flow Cannula Inspiratory Flow Limitation Flow Increase with Stimulation Nasal/Oral Thermo Figure 5-3. Airflow Responses to Stimulation Programmer Model 2740 English 69 Adjust Sensing Adjustments to sensing settings rarely are required when using the recommended settings. Contact your Inspire representative if sensing adjustments are required. If therapeutic sensing parameters have not been identified, it is recommended to start with the default values. Sensing is adjusted to deliver stimulation during the late expiratory and inspiratory portions of the respiratory cycle. Adjust sensing parameters only when the patient is asleep, as the respiratory waveform is likely to be different when the patient is awake. Do not adjust sensing immediately following patient position changes or changes to other therapy parameters. Wait for several minutes of steady sleep. If apneas or hypopneas are not occurring at a significant rate then adjustments typically do not need to be made. Avoid unnecessary adjustments and evaluate each change for a least 10 minutes before considering an additional change. Do not adjust sensing settings if stimulation adjustments may be effective. 1. Select the Adjust Sensing button on the Home screen. 2. The invert signal setting may be used if stimulation consistently occurs during exhalation

Reports Do Not Contain Patient Information Review the data controls on the Programmer Settings screen. Select the check box for Enable Patient Information Storage. Cannot Find a Report If you cannot locate a particular report and the IPG underwent a reset, then the report may be stored under the serial number 000001or 300000. See IPG Reset on page 76 for more information. If you cannot locate a particular report and an IPG reset did not occur, the programmer may have run out of storage space. See Storage Full Notification on page 74 for more information. Out-of-Range Impedances Impedance measurement results less than 200 ohms may indicate a leadIPG connection problem. Test stimulation to confirm a good leadIPG connection. Impedance values greater than 2000 ohms are outside the IPG measurement range and should be considered for information only. Programmer Model 2740 English 77 Therapy Parameter Changes Not in IPG If parameter changes made during a session do not appear on the Home screen, in a session report, or in the IPG:
1. Return to the appropriate programming screen and repeat the desired parameter changes. 2. Push the Configure IPG button. If you leave a screen before pushing this button, the changes will not be saved to the IPG. 3. Review parameters on the Home screen before ending the session. 4. Always allow all telemetry communications to complete before a patient leaves. If a patient is allowed to leave during a test stimulation or impedance measurement, the IPG may not be restored to therapy settings. Usage The therapy usage status displays red on the Home screen when therapy has been on for less than 4 hours per night since the last programming session. Reference the last session date on the Home screen. Therapy Is On but Stimulation Is Not Active If you have selected the Therapy On button but therapy appears to be inactive, the IPG may be in start delay or pause time. Patient Amplitude Change Is Incorrect If the previous programming session was not ended properly or was conducted with an earlier version of the programmer software, the patient amplitude change information that displays on the Home screen may be incorrect. To ensure that patient amplitude change information is correct follow these guidelines:
Always review therapy parameters and properly end the programming session before the patient leaves. (See Exiting a Session and Turning Off the Programmer on page 28 for more information.) Never let a patient leave after a forced programmer shutdown until you reconnect to the IPG and confirm the IPG settings Jerky or Halting Stimulation Jerky or halting stimulation can occur as a result of telemetry interrupting stimulation. To reduce the likelihood of halting stimulation:
1. Turn off therapy before testing stimulation or changing IPG parameters. 2. Reposition telemetry head to achieve stronger signal strength. (See Positioning Telemetry Head and Connecting to IPG on page 24 for instructions.) 78 English Programmer Model 2740 Chapter 7: Warnings and Precautions This chapter contains the programmer warning and precautions. Warnings Do not modify this equipment without authorization of the manufacturer Battery capacity The IPG battery capacity can be measured using the programmer. Patients should schedule an appointment with their physician when the IPG battery status displays Low or Depleted. Depending on IPG battery settings and usage, the IPG may last for days or weeks after the battery status displays Low Only charge the battery when its temperature is between 0C and 40C Use only the tablet power supply provided with the tablet. Do not use the tablet power supply to power any other electronic devices The system should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other equipment. If adjacent or stacked use is necessary, the programmer and other equipment should be observed to verify normal operation Precautions Defibrillation When a patient is in ventricular or atrial fibrillation, the first consideration is patient survival. Use of external defibrillation or cardioversion while the telemetry head is in contact with the patient may induce currents into the device that may damage the device. It is recommended to remove the telemetry head from the patient prior to the use of defibrillation. Setup When moving the system between environments with very different humidity and/or temperature ranges, allow sufficient time to adjust to the new humidity or temperature Do not drop the system components or subject them to other mechanical shocks Do not apply heavy pressure to the system components or subject them to strong impact. Excessive pressure or impact can cause damage to tablet components or otherwise cause malfunctions. Do not place the system components in an unsteady location. If the tablet is placed in an unsteady location, such as on an unstable stand or incline, the tablet may fall or tip over and cause injury. Do not place the system components in direct sunlight or next to equipment that generates heat. This can damage the programmer and may generate heat or fire. Do not use the Model 2740 power supplies for other equipment. This can generate heat or fire. In addition, do not use other power supplies with the system.

This information is not intended as a comprehensive or exhaustive list of issues and recommendations. Your organization's particular needs and security requirements may call for additional actions and controls. Each organization must reach its own decisions on how to implement appropriate safeguards. Inspire Programmer (Model 2740) The Inspire Programmer (Model 2740) retains in memory all patient identifiers and data entered during a programming session. The option not to store PHI is available on the Programmer Settings screen. Disable (uncheck) the Patient Information Storage feature if you do not want PHI to be stored. Also, the option not to allow the export of PHI is available on the Programmer Settings screen. Disable (uncheck) the Patient Information Export feature if you do not PHI to be exported. In general, we recommend treating the programmer as if it contains PHI. It is also recommended that reports retained from the device be treated in the same manner as any other medical record, particularly if any patient identifier (such as a patient name or record label) has been included in the report. Essential Performance Essential performance of the Model 2740 Inspire programmer has been determined to be uninterrupted performance or recovery from performance interruption with or without a restart of the programmer. FCC Notice (USA) Electromagnetic disturbances can potentially disrupt, degrade, or otherwise interfere with authorized electronic emissions, which may include television, AM/FM broadcasts, cellular services, radar, air traffic control, and pagers. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules and Regulations have established Radio Frequency (RF) emission limits to provide an interference-free RF spectrum. Many electronic devices, including computers, generate RF energy incidental to their intended function and are, therefore, covered by these rules. The Inspire Programmer (Model 2740) tablet, telemetry cable, and all accessories meet the U.S. and European regulatory limits for Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC). EMC is the ability of electronic devices, including computers, to function properly together in the electronic environment. However, there is no guarantee that in a specific installation it will not cause interference. Should this equipment cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, you are encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient the receiving antenna Relocate the programmer Separate the equipment and the programmer Plug the equipment and the programmer into different electrical outlet circuits This device complies with Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
This device may not cause harmful interference This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation Programmer Model 2740 English 87 Class A Equipment This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. Embedded in the programmer are various Radio Frequency (RF) wireless communication devices. It may contain one or more radio-type devices that operate in the 4501550 KHz band, 13.56 MHz, as well as devices that operate in the 2.4 or 5.4 GHz band. All radio-type devices embedded in your tablet have met all the qualifications for use under FCC regulations and guidelines. This equipment complies with FCC Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Signal (RF) exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment of portable transmission. This product has been evaluated for RF exposure at a distance of 20 cm (8 inches). Operation at a separation distance less than 20 cm
(8 inches) from the radiating element to nearby persons will not expose nearby persons to RF levels that exceed the FCC rules for RF exposure.
