Term
Definition
Accessory Belt
An elastic belt with a pouch to hold an eCLS or a Charger
coil.
Charger
The device that charges the battery in the CLS.
Charger coil
A circular paddle connected to the Charger that is held
over the CLS to charge the CLS battery.
Charger Power Adapter
The power supply adapter for the CLS/eCLS Charger.
Closed-Loop (CL) Stimulation
Stimulation that is automatically adjusted in response to
measurements from the spinal cord nerves (ECAP) to
maintain stable therapy. This is also known as ECAP-
controlled closed-loop stimulation.
Closed-Loop Stimulator (CLS)
An implantable pulse generator capable of ECAP-
controlled closed-loop stimulation.
Electrode
An electrical contact that may be used to deliver
stimulation current or to measure responses from spinal
cord nerves.
Evoke Pocket Console (EPC)
A remote controller that allows the patient to adjust the
therapy output from the CLS/eCLS.
Evoked Compound Action
The electrical signal from multiple nerve fibers in
Potential (ECAP)
response to an electrical stimulus pulse.
External Closed-Loop Simulator
The eCLS is a non-implantable device with the same
(eCLS)
functionalities as the CLS.
Lead
Insulated cable with a number of exposed electrodes at
the distal end used in neurostimulation therapy.
Lead Adapter
An adapter that enables the connection between leads or
lead extensions and the eCLS during the trial stimulation
period.
Lead Extension
Insulated cable that is connected to a lead to increase its
length or for temporary use during the trial stimulation
period.
Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS)
A treatment for chronic pain utilizing pulsed electrical
signals delivered to the spinal cord.
Stimulation
The application of electrical current through electrodes.
