Event Description
|
As of (b)(6) 2023, the physician reported that the lead impedance was in the high range.The impedance was previously 800, and increased to1200 and higher.The patient did not experience any adverse events related to the high impedance.As of (b)(6) 2023, the impedance was high again and x-rays were taken.The results showed that the lead appeared to be disconnecting from the ipg.There were no adverse events reported by the patient.On (b)(6) 2023, a pocket revision was performed.When the electrode was unscrewed from the device it was reported that the electrode was defective, likely indicating the terminal pin and/or seals were damaged due to the setscrews not being fully tightened or loosened.The ipg was removed and the device was left off until the patient decides how they want to proceed.
