Event Description
Information was received from a patient who was implanted with an implantable neurostimulator (ins) for urinary dysfunction/sacral nerve stimulation and gastrointestinal/pelvic floor therapy.It was reported that when they lay flat in bed at night they wake up "uncontrollably shaking".Patient said they started having problems "about 3 months ago".Patient said that they sent a message to their previous healthcare provider asking if this could have anything to do with the implanted device and the healthcare provider told the patient that the only way to know for sure is to turn the stimulation off when the shaking is happening.Patient turned off the stimulation and the shaking stopped.Patient stated they have "not been using it" and currently have it ins turned off, which they said "creates other problems".Patient mentioned that they moved and are looking for a hcp, but had not been able to find anyone using the physician locator.Patient service specialist documenting reported event.Patient requested physician listings in their area.Patient service specialist was able to generate a list of physicians in their area and emailed list to the patient.Additional information was received from the patient.Patient called back and reiterated that they were having some issues with their stimulator and that they would wake up uncontrollably shaking in bed.They reported that they have located a new health care provider (hcp) and that they've gone a couple times but the hcp didn't know the clinical part about how to reprogram their stimulator.The patient stated there was just one nurse there who knew how to work with the devices and they determined the first time they visited with the hcp in november 2023 that they had an electrode that was not connected.The patient stated the nurse was trying to help the patient figure out what programs to use and what program to avoid.The patient stated the nurse told them to avoid programs 4 and 7 but the patient stated they didn't even have those programs and that their previous hcp since the beginning had them programmed with programs 1, a, b, c <(>&<)> d.The patient was hoping to locate someone who knew how to program/reprogram their ins because the nurse wanted the patient to come back to the office again to try different programs because it wasn't helping and the drive round-t rip was 120 miles and the patient didn't want to go all the way out there again unless someone could help them figure out what to do.Patient services provided the patient with the technical services phone number and the national answering service number to give to the nurse and advised the nurse could always call technical services when working with the patient or they could page a medtronic representative to come to the patient's next appointment.The patient stated they would provide the nurse with the numbers and continue working with the nurse to find a good program setting.
