It was reported that the patient suffered an electric shock of 220 volts while using an autogenous welder.The patient experienced worsening stiffness, ¿a predominance of right side¿, with increased linguial dyskinesias and residual tremor.The patient¿s symptoms had increased in the three days prior to the patient¿s visit with the physician.While the hcp was attempting to adjust the implantable neurostimulator (ins), the device suddenly turned off, with parameters set to 0 volts, 0 microseconds, and 0 hertz.The device had to be restarted.Prior to the patient being shocked, the device parameters and impedances were as follows: left ins: c+, 0-, 1-, 2.8 v, 90 micros, 130 hz right ins: c+, 10-, 3.0 v, 90micros, 130 hz impedances in ohms, measured at 0.7 v: c/3 3183, c/3 4165, 1/3 4107, 2/3 4586, c/8 2128, c/9 4805, c/11 2406, 8/9 5794, 8/11 4201, 9/10 4886, 9/11 6729 after experiencing the shock, the device parameters were as follows: left ins: c+, 1-, 2-, 3.5 v, 90 miros, 130 hz right ins: c+, 9-, 10-, 3.5 v, 90 micros, 130 hz impedances were out of range on electrode pairs c/2 and c/3.
