Event Description
|
Information was received from a consumer regarding a patient with an implanted neurostimulator (ins) for urinary dysfunction/sacral nerve stimulation and gastrointestinal /pelvic floor therapy.It was reported the patient noticed the implant doesn't seem to be working as she had a return of symptoms.The patient said she was going to make an adjustment to the stimulation because the symptoms were "getting stronger" for a month, maybe a little longer, but the programmer is not working.The programmer doesn't beep or anything.The patient said she kept getting new batteries for the programmer thinking the problem was with the programmer batteries, but it still wouldn't power on.The patient was at work and would call back when she had the programmer to be able to troubleshoot.The patient called back the next day with the programmer, had tried many sets of batteries but the screen still will not power on.Patient was sent a replacement programmer.No further complications were reported or are anticipated.
