NEW GENERATOR DISABLED DUE TO EOS AT FIRST OFFICE VISIT

exposed to certain conditions. These conditions include the following:
• Electrosurgical equipment used near the generator
• Generator exposed to electrostatic discharge (ESD)

SUDDEN DECREASE IN REMAINING BATTERY POWER
If the remaining generator battery power suddenly decreases at an office visit,
the following are possible causes:
• First visit after VNS or other surgery: exposure to specific conditions in the
OR (see Low Battery/ End of Service Indications in OR) during surgery. If
this condition occurred and was not detected in the OR, it is possible you
may detect this at the follow up visit. Device will still function normally,
but will have decreased battery life. Monitor the patient closely for any low
battery indicators.
• Significant change in the lead impedance or increase in programmed
stimulation parameters can also result in a change in the estimated battery
power remaining. Evaluate battery power remaining between consecutive
patient visits before adjusting stimulation parameters.
• Review lead impedance for any significant changes.
If any device issue is suspected, contact LivaNova Technical Support.
