System Programming Manual
•
Test stimulations should be delivered to each electrode individually (electrode to
neurostimulator) to determine whether there are acute side effects from stimulation.
•
Habituation to side effects resulting from stimulation has been observed; however it is not
advised to program settings that cause patient discomfort.
•
Avoid stimulation settings that cause an electrographic afterdischarge.
Caution:
Afterdischarge Activity
If evidence of afterdischarge activity resulting from stimulation is seen either on stored
ECoGs or during test stimulation delivery, stimulation parameters should be adjusted
to prevent such occurrence.
