IPG Explant or Replacement
1. Turn off the IPG.
2. Surgically open the IPG pocket and withdraw the device. Please try to preserve the integrity of all
components so that complete device assessment can be performed.
3. Loosen the Connector Setscrews to release and remove the Leads, Lead Extensions, or Splitters.
4. For replacement, connect the new IPG following the instructions for “Connecting the Lead, Lead
Extension, Splitter, or Connector to the 16 Contact IPG” on page 9. Or, to terminate therapy,
surgically remove the implanted Lead system.
5. Notify Boston Scientific to document the reason for explant or replacement and to arrange for return of
IPG and components.
Rechargeable Stimulator System
The WaveWriter Alpha and WaveWriter Alpha 16 IPGs are rechargeable. Boston Scientific recommends
any recharge routine that fits the patient’s schedule and lifestyle while maintaining sufficient charge to
maintain stimulation.
Developing a patient’s recharge routine involves finding the right balance among the following:
•
How much power is required for the patient to experience effective therapy.
•
How often the patient wants to recharge.
•
How long the patient wants to recharge.
•
How the patient would like to manage their personal schedule.
The Clinician Programmer will estimate charging time based on 24 hours per day of stimulation at the
programmed settings. To charge fully, wait until the Charger emits an end of charge beep signal or the
Remote Control display indicates that the battery is charged. Refer to the
Patient Charger Handbook
and the
Clinician Remote Control
Directions for Use
for additional information. The recharging process is
simple, but important.
Charging Steps
WARNINGS:
•
Patient should not charge while sleeping. This may result in a burn.
•
While charging, the Charger may become warm. It should be handled with care.
•
Failure to use the Charger with either the Charger Belt or an Adhesive Pad, as shown, may result
in a burn. If pain or discomfort is felt, cease charging and contact Boston Scientific.
The Charger Base Station should be plugged in and the Charger placed in the Base Station when not
in use. When the indicator light is green, the Charger is fully charged. When the indicator is amber, the
Charger is partially charged, but is still able to deliver a charge to the IPG.
1. When the indicator light is green, remove the Charger from the Base Station. The indicator light will
then turn off.
2. Press the power button. The indicator light will come on again, and the Charger will begin beeping as it
searches for the IPG.
3. Place the Charger over the IPG. When the Charger is aligned with the IPG, the beeping will stop.
• Centering the Charger over the IPG will ensure the shortest charging time.
• Many patients are able to feel the implanted Stimulator and can place the Charger directly on
top of it.
