Mml ref: (b)(4).The returned left lead assembly was lost during transit.If the part is received, an investigation will be performed, and a supplemental report will be submitted.Additional information was received that the patient was initially reported could not activate the device.The patient was provided an activator but could not start a session with the new activator.The therapy manager saw the patient on (b)(6) 2022 to troubleshoot the issue, finding three electrodes out of range and excluded.At that time, the patient was reprogrammed with the working electrode of the left lead and the implantable pulse generator (ipg) can.The patient was able to start bilateral stimulation.The doctor recommended a revision surgery to replace the left lead.During the revision surgery to replace the left lead, the right lead was tested nominal for impedance and was removed from the right header and placed to the left header to rule out any issue with the ipg possibly being the cause of the oor.Lead and header impedances were nominal.In placing the right lead back in the right header, electrode 5 on the right lead became oor.The right lead was secured and remained in the right header, and the left lead was implanted and placed in the left header.All impedances were nominal except for the #5 electrode.The patient was tested afterward and achieved good contractions without programming using the #5 electrode.
