overstimulation. Excessive lead migration may require
reoperation to replace the leads.
Operation of machines, equipment, and vehicles.
If you
feel uncomfortable paresthesia during postural changes
do not operate potentially dangerous equipment such
as power tools, automobiles, or other motor vehicles.
Do not climb ladders or participate in activities where
postural changes or abrupt movements could cause

Additional Warnings Only Applicable to the
Trial System
Routine medical procedures.
If you are using a trial
system, inform your healthcare providers and avoid
elective medical procedures.
Additional Warnings Only Applicable to the
Permanent System
External defibrillators.
Safety for use of external
defibrillator discharges on a patient receiving
neurostimulation has not been established. External
defibrillation can cause induced currents in the lead-
extension portion of the neurostimulation system. After
defibrillation, confirm the neurostimulation system is
still working.
Cardioverter defibrillators.
Neurostimulation systems
may adversely affect the programming of implanted
cardioverter defibrillators.
Radiofrequency or microwave ablation.
Safety has not
been established for radiofrequency (RF) or microwave
