Event Description
|
It was reported that the reactiv8 system was explanted due to non-efficacy and patient compliance due to discomfort during therapy.The patient reported increased hip pain and abdominal contractions during therapy sessions.Mainstay medical attempted to program the device, and even though the midline contraction was established, the patient consistently reported therapy discomfort.Reportedly, the patient was advised to limit her activity acutely for the initial period after the implant procedure, but the patient struggled to restrict her activity.According to the patient, she has been in labor-intensive volunteering, church activities, and long walks, which will be difficult for her to stop.Before the reactiv8 implant, the patient had a groin sensation and a hip pain health issue.A review of the implant images revealed a slight suboptimal placement of the right lead.It is difficult to ascertain the magnitude of contribution the suboptimal placement of the right lead had on the non-efficacy of the therapy, the discomfort experienced by the patient, or whether the system was effected post implant by the patient's activity.The device was removed with no report of patient harm or injury.
