medical personnel of your implanted system. Use
caution when undergoing any procedure that could
include radiofrequency (RF) or microwave ablation,
defibrillation, or cardioversion.
Therapeutic radiation.
Therapeutic radiation may
damage the electronic circuitry of a neurostimulation
system, although no testing has been done and no
definite information on radiation effects is available.
Sources of therapeutic radiation include therapeutic
X
‑
rays, cobalt machines, and linear accelerators. If
radiation therapy is required, either disconnect the EPG
from the leads or extensions or shield the area over the
implanted IPG with lead. Damage to the system may not
be immediately detectable.
Component manipulation.
Do not rub or press on
implanted components through the skin. This may cause
the leads to move leading to stimulation at the implant
site, IPG inversion leading to the inability to
communicate with the device, or skin erosion that can
lead to another surgical procedure or possible infection.
Implantation at vertebral levels above T10.
The safety
and efficacy of implantation of leads implanted above
the T10 vertebral level have not been evaluated.
Number of leads implanted.
The safety and efficacy of
the implantation of greater than four leads have not
been evaluated.
Lead movement.
Avoid bending, twisting, stretching,
and lifting objects over 2 kg (5 lb) for at least six weeks
after implantation. These activities may cause lead
movement, resulting in understimulation or
