Caution: Your OPTIMIZER Lite IPG should either be deactivated
or closely monitored prior to and during any medical treatment in
which electrical current is passed through the body.
Caution: Your OPTIMIZER Lite IPG should not be directly
exposed to therapeutic ultrasound or therapeutic radiation. This
type of exposure may damage the device in such a way that may
not be immediately detectable.

systems normally will not harm your OPTIMIZER Lite IPG.
However, do not linger around the equipment. Before going

The Importance of Your Implanted Medical
Device Identification Card
Following your implantation surgery, your doctor will provide you
with an Implanted Medical Device Identification Card indicating
that you are implanted with an OPTIMIZER Lite Implantable Pulse
Generator.
It is important that you carry your Implanted Medical Device
Identification Card and a current list of your medications with you
at all times. In a medical emergency, the Implanted Medical
Device Identification Card contains information of great
importance to an attending physician and will assist in expediting
any emergency medical care you may require.
In addition, it is important to notify all your health care providers
that you have had an OPTIMIZER Lite device implanted. As such,
the next time you visit your doctor or dentist, show them your
Implanted Medical Device Identification Card so that a copy of it
may be made for their records.
