Device specifications The neurostimulator is a multi-program device that delivers stimulation through one lead. The stimulation settings are stored in programs. A program is a specific combination of pulse width, rate, and amplitude settings acting on a specific electrode combination. Up to two programs can be combined into a group. When using more than one program, the pulses are delivered sequentiallyfirst a pulse from one program, then a pulse from the next program. Pulse width, amplitude, and electrode polarity for each program within the group can have different values. Rate, rate limits, SoftStart/Stop and Cycling for each program within the group have the same values. 376022016-06-01English9 Table 1.

Cautions:
When using sharp instruments near the neurostimulator, be extremely careful to avoid nicking or damaging the case or the connector block. Damaging the neurostimulator may require surgical replacement. Do not use saline or other ionic fluids at connections, which could result in a short circuit. Verifying neurostimulator operation Before opening the sterile neurostimulator package, verify that the neurostimulator is operable by using the clinician programmer to interrogate the neurostimulator and read the neurostimulator battery service life. (Refer to the software manual for instructions on how to read the battery service life.) Caution: Do not implant a neurostimulator if it was dropped onto a hard surface from a height of 30 cm (12 in) or more, because the neurostimulator may be damaged and fail to operate properly. Note: The neurostimulator pocket may be flushed with an antibiotic solution; do not submerge the neurostimulator in fluid. Connecting the extension to the neurostimulator Caution: Before connecting components, wipe off any body fluids and dry all connections. Fluids in the connection may result in stimulation at the connection site, intermittent stimulation, or loss of stimulation. 1. Wipe the extension connector pins with sterile gauze. If necessary, use sterile (United States Pharmacopeia [USP]) water or a nonionic antibiotic solution. 2. Make sure the connector block receptacles are dry and clean. 3. Insert the appropriate extension connector pins into the appropriate neurostimulator socket until they are seated fully within the connector block (Figure 1). If resistance is felt while inserting the connector pins, use the torque wrench (packaged with the neurostimulator) to retract the setscrews. Note: To retract the setscrews, insert the torque wrench into the self-sealing grommet and rotate the setscrews counterclockwise; however, do not remove the setscrews from the connector block. 376022016-06-01English13 Cautions:
Do not insert the extension connector into the connector block if the setscrews are not sufficiently retracted. If the setscrews are not retracted, the extension connector pins may damage the setscrews and the extension connector pins will not be seated fully into the connector block. Limit counter-clockwise rotations of the neurostimulator setscrews when retracting them. Too many counter-clockwise rotations may disengage the setscrew from the connector block. Figure 1. Insert the extension connector pins fully into the neurostimulator. 4. Fully insert the torque wrench into each self-sealing grommet of the connector block and tighten each setscrew (Figure 2). Note: The torque wrench must be oriented to the same angle as the setscrew
(Figure 2). 14English376022016-06-01 Cautions:
Be sure the torque wrench is fully inserted into the self-sealing grommet. If the torque wrench is not fully inserted, the setscrew may be damaged, resulting in intermittent or loss of stimulation. Before tightening the setscrews, ensure that the extension connector pins are inserted into the connector block to prevent damaging the connector block. Verify that each leaf of the self-sealing grommet is closed after the torque wrench is withdrawn. If fluid leaks through a grommet seal that is not fully closed, the patient may experience shocking, burning, or irritation at the neurostimulator implant location, or intermittent stimulation or loss of stimulation may occur. Figure 2. Tightening the setscrews in the self-sealing grommet. Implanting the neurostimulator 1. Place the neurostimulator into the subcutaneous pocket with the Medtronic logo facing outward, away from muscle tissue, and ensure that the extension is not bent sharply. Cautions:
Ensure that the neurostimulator is placed no deeper than 4 cm (1.5 in) below the skin and is parallel to the skin. If the neurostimulator is too deep or is not parallel to the skin, telemetry may be unsuccessful. Do not coil excess extension in front of the neurostimulator. Wrap excess extension around the perimeter (Figure 3) of the neurostimulator to minimize subcutaneous pocket depth, help minimize potential damage during neurostimulator replacement surgery, help minimize potential kinking of the extension, and minimize interference with telemetry. Excess extension should not exceed two wraps around the perimeter of the neurostimulator. 376022016-06-01English15 Extension lengths requiring more than two wraps can interfere with telemetry. Figure 3. Wrap excess extension around the perimeter of the neurostimulator. 2. Use the suture holes in the connector block to secure the neurostimulator to the muscle fascia with nonabsorbable silk. Checking system integrity Caution: To use the nonsterile clinician programmer in a sterile field, place a sterile barrier between the patient and the programming head to prevent infection. Do not sterilize any part of the clinician programmer. Sterilization may damage the programmer. Note: The neurostimulator should be in the pocket during system interrogation for integrity to ensure proper readings. 1. To ensure proper connection of the extension to the neurostimulator, use the clinician programmer to program the lead configuration and basic stimulation parameters, check the battery status, and check the electrode impedances to rule out a short or open circuit. If the system integrity test results are not acceptable, refer to "Connecting the extension to the neurostimulator" on page 13. 2. Completing the implant procedure 1. Close and dress all incisions. 2. Ensure that a patient control device is given to the patient. 3. Complete the device tracking and patient registration paperwork and return the documents to Medtronic. 16English376022016-06-01 376022016-06-01English17 Contacts:
