  • Page 7: Prescription And Safety Information

    Prescription and Safety Information Read this section to gather important prescription and safety information. Intended Use This neurostimulation system is designed to deliver low-intensity electrical impulses to nerve structures. The system is intended to be used with leads and associated extensions that are compatible with the system.
  • Page 8: Mri Safety Information

    MRI Safety Information Some models of this system are Magnetic Resonance (MR) Conditional, and patients with these devices may be scanned safely with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) when the conditions for safe scanning are met. For more information about MR Conditional neurostimulation components and systems, including equipment settings, scanning procedures, and a complete listing of conditionally approved components, refer to the MRI procedures clinician's manual for neurostimulation systems (available online at manuals.sjm.com).
  • Page 9 Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Some patients may be implanted with the components that make up a Magnetic Resonance (MR) Conditional system, which allows them to receive an MRI scan if all the requirements for the implanted components and for scanning are met. A physician can help determine if a patient is eligible to receive an MRI scan by following the requirements provided by St.
  • Page 10 electrosurgery device, place the device in Surgery Mode using the patient controller app or clinician programmer app. Confirm the neurostimulation system is functioning correctly after the procedure. During implant procedures, if electrosurgery devices must be used, take the following actions: Use bipolar electrosurgery only.
  • Page 11 device in a unipolar mode (using the device’s can as an anode) or using neurostimulation system settings that interfere with the function of the implantable cardiac system. Emergency procedures. Instruct patients to designate a representative (family member or close friend) to notify any emergency medical personnel of their implanted neurostimulation system if emergency care is required.
  • Page 12 linear accelerators. If radiation therapy is required, the area over the implanted IPG should be shielded with lead. Damage to the system may not be immediately detectable. Restricted areas. Warn patients to seek medical guidance before entering environments that could adversely affect the operation of the implanted device, including areas protected by a warning notice preventing entry by patients fitted with a pacemaker.
  • Page 13 Advise patients to not use their device when engaging in activities that might cause it to get wet, such as swimming or bathing. Device components. The use of components not approved for use by St. Jude Medical with this system may result in damage to the system and increased risk to the patient.
  • Page 14: Precautions

    IPG disposal. Return all explanted IPGs to St. Jude Medical for safe disposal. IPGs contain batteries as well as other potentially hazardous materials. Do not crush, puncture, or burn the IPG because explosion or fire may result. Product materials. Neurostimulation systems have materials that come in contact or may come in contact with tissue.
  • Page 15 Implantation of multiple leads. If multiple leads or extensions are implanted, the leads and extensions should be routed in close proximity. Nonadjacent leads and extensions have the possibility of creating a conduit for stray electromagnetic energy that could cause the patient unwanted stimulation. High stimulation outputs.
  • Page 16 Storage environment. Store components and their packaging where they will not come in contact with liquids of any kind. Handling and Implementation Expiration date. An expiration date (or “use-before” date) is printed on the packaging. Do not use the system if the use-before date has expired. Package or component damage.
  • Page 17 Component handling. Do not bend, kink, or stretch the lead body, sheaths, or other components as this may result in damage to the component and poor function. Using surgical instruments. Do not use surgical instruments to handle the lead. The force of the instruments may damage the lead or stylet.
  • Page 18 System testing. To ensure correct operation, always test the system during the implant procedure, before closing the neurostimulator pocket, and before the patient leaves the surgery suite. Component disposal. Return all explanted components to St. Jude Medical for safe disposal. Hospital and Medical Environments High-output ultrasonics and lithotripsy.

    first activate the IPG for communication ("wake up" the IPG) by holding a magnet over the IPG for 8 seconds. Creating an IPG Pocket The following steps outline the suggested procedure to create an IPG pocket: Determine the site for the IPG, ensuring that the lead is long enough to reach the pocket and provide a strain relief loop.
  • Page 28: Connecting A Lead Or Extension To The Ipg

    Connecting a Lead or Extension to the IPG The following steps outline the suggested guidelines to connect a lead or extension to the IPG: WARNING: To avoid harming the patient or damaging the neurostimulation system, ensure that any electrosurgery procedures are completed before connecting the lead or extensions to the IPG.
