Event Description
|
Information was received from an healthcare professional (hcp) regarding a patient with an implantable neurostimulator (ins) for gastric stimulation.It was reported the hcp explanted the enterra lead due to migration.The hcp stated the leads migrated and were explanted on (b)(6) 2018 because the patient didn¿t have improvement, and the stimulator was still in the patient.The hcp stated the surgeon wanted to return the leads.It was noted the patient was ¿scoped¿ on (b)(6) 2018, but that migration was observed on (b)(6) 2018.There were no further complications that have been reported as a result of this event.

Event Description
|
Additional information was received from a healthcare professional (hcp).It was reported that the patient had an improvement of symptoms, but now had a recurrence of symptoms with an increase of impedance.The preoperative diagnoses were gastroparesis, chronic nausea and vomiting, and a migration of the leads.It was noted that the procedures involved included robotic lead replacement, gastric stimulator pocket revision, esophagogastroduodenoscopy, and reprogramming.During the procedure, the leads were identified and dissected free from the stomach, cut from the button and the button was removed, and the leads were removed from the stomach and abdomen.Two new leads were placed into position, and the impedance was tested and found to be 528.The new leads were connected to the battery, the battery was sutured into the pocket, and all incisions were closed.The battery was turned on and the impedance was found to be 447 and the voltage was 2.2.It was noted that the patient tolerated the procedure well.No further complications were report ed/anticipated.
