Event Description

It was reported that the patient recently had a battery replacement (activa to percept).Prior to the battery replacement the system showed low impedances on several contacts.Nevertheless, it was decided to continue with the battery replacement.After the replacement the system showed elevated impedances (unknown whether these were the same contacts as for the low impedances) and an oor messages was received.Additionally, the patient experienced less efficient therapy effects (return of symptoms, but no shocks).Additional information was received from the manufacturer representative (rep) that the cause of the low impedance was not determined.Different impedance tests were run and stimulation was adjusted on a different contact.The cause of the high impedance was not determined.The patient's symptoms have not resolved.Actions taken to attempt to resolve high impedance and oor included lowering amplitude, pulseiwth, impedance testing, stimulating different contact (which was not comfortable to the patient).The patient will have a revision soon as there is suspected to be a damaged extension.Testing on the battery, extension, and lead will be performed.Refer to manufacturer report 2182207-2023-01303 for related device.
