Package Contents

In addition to the product documentation, the generator kit contains the following items:

1 generator (Model 32400)


1 pocket sizer (Model 12720)


1 torque wrench (Model 1101)


2 port plugs (Model 12710)

Identifying the Generator

You can identify the generator in the following ways:

The model number and barcode are engraved on the generator.


The generator has a radiopaque identification tag in the lower right corner that can be viewed with

standard X-ray procedures. On the tag, ABT identifies Abbott Medical as the manufacturer, and the

letter and a number combination A2 identifies the model family. Additionally, the header port plug is

radiopaque and, if used, is visible with standard x

ray procedures (see the following figure).

The clinician programmer app when connected to the generator indicates the model number and allows

you to view other generator information. See the clinician programmer manual for instructions.

Directions for Use

Read this section carefully for suggested directions for use related to the Eterna™ implantable pulse

generator. For directions for use for other system components such as the clinician programmer, see the

clinician’s manual for the clinician programmer.
NOTE: Before the surgical procedure, set up communication between the clinician programmer and the

generator while the generator is in its sterile packaging to ensure that it is functional and fully charged. If

the generator has never established communication with a programmer, you must first activate the

generator for communication by holding the magnet over the generator for 8 to 25 seconds.
NOTE: Ensure the generator is fully charged before implantation. The generator can be charged through its

sterile packaging.

Creating a Generator Pocket

The following steps outline the suggested procedure to create an generator pocket:

1. Determine the site for the generator, ensuring that the lead is long enough to reach the pocket and

1.

provide a strain relief loop.
NOTE: Common sites for generator implantation are along the midaxillary line, in the upper buttock

along the posterior axillary line (taking care to avoid the belt line), and in the area over the abdomen

just below the lowermost rib. To ensure a flat area is selected, you can mark a flat area prior to the

surgical procedure while the patient is in a sitting position.

CAUTION: Do not place the generator deeper than 2.5 cm (0.98 in.) because the clinician

programmer, generator charger, and patient magnet may not communicate effectively with the

generator.
CAUTION: Ensure the generator is set to Surgery mode using the clinician programmer.
