Intraoperative Testing
Intraoperative testing may be performed using the External Trial Stimulator (ETS) and the
appropriate OR Cable. See the
section of this manual. Refer to the
appropriate
Programming Manual
as listed in the
DBS Reference Guide
for detailed stimulation

Do not immerse the OR Cable Connector or plug in water or other liquids. The OR
Cable is intended for single use only; do not resterilize.
Intraoperative Testing Using ETS 3 and 8 Contact Push‑Button OR Cables
(DB‑5170 with DB‑4120‑08)
1. Ensure that ETS 3 is off by checking the Stim Indicator light
on the ETS.
Warning:
Always turn the ETS 3 off before connecting or disconnecting the OR Cable
assemblies to prevent unexpected stimulation.
2. Connect the proximal end of the OR Cable Extension to the ETS 3 Port labeled “L” while
keeping the distal end of the OR cable within the sterile field (Figure 11).
If two DBS Leads are being tested simultaneously, connect the left DBS Lead to Port L and the
right DBS Lead to Port R.
