Define Tined Lead Thresholds

Manually recording the motor and sensory responses
Motor and sensory responses associated with
stimulation at each electrode can be manually recorded.
Entering the motor and sensory responses is optional.
For example, if the patient is not awake during the
implant procedure, the sensory response can be left as
“None.”
If saved, the response data and stimulation thresholds
are displayed when communicating with a
Neurostimulator. This data can be used to inform which
stimulation settings to use for therapy, and the CP will
provide recommended electrode configurations based
on this information. For example, if the stimulation with
a particular electrode elicited a “bad” sensation, that
electrode will not be included in recommended
electrode configurations.
Clear All Thresholds
The ‘Clear All’ button -
(
⑦
)
- appears once a
threshold value has been obtained (at the first test
stimulation).
Pressing this button will clear established thresholds on
all electrodes and allows this process to be started over.
This option may be useful if the tined lead is
repositioned, for example.
