Event Description
|
Information was received from a manufacturer representative (rep) regarding a patient who was implanted with a neurostimulator for gastric stimulation.It was reported that the patient had the stimulator and leads implanted on the day of the report.During the case, they experienced some issues with the original leads and battery.They had to change out all of the devices because they could not get an impedance reading after multiple troubleshooting attempts.It was noted that they were reading out of range at > 20,000 ohms.They first tried a new battery and, when that didn¿t work, they opened and implanted two additional leads.The impedance reading was 462 and the patient was doing fine.No further complications were reported or anticipated.
