Device specifications
The neurostimulator is a multi-programmable, rechargeable device that delivers stimulation
through 1 or 2 leads. The stimulation settings are stored in programs. A program is a
specific combination of pulse width, rate, and amplitude settings acting on a specific
electrode combination. Up to four programs can be combined into a group, with a maximum
of 2 programs per lead. When using more than one program, the pulses are delivered
sequentially—first a pulse from one program, then a pulse from the next program.
Pulse width, amplitude, and electrode polarity for each program within the group can have
different values. Rate, rate limits, ramping, and cycling for each program within the group
have the same values.
