Event Description
|
Information was received from a consumer regarding a patient who was implanted with a neurostimulator (ins) for gastrointestinal/pelvic floor and urinary dysfunction/sacral nerve stim.It was reported that the patient was ¿messing around¿ with the programmer and thinks they ¿messed something up;¿ they had a sudden return of symptoms yesterday and thought they may have turned off the stimulator.Troubleshooting found that stimulation was off.The patient stated that they believe they accidentally turned the ins off, as they thought the ¿ins off¿ button turned off the programmer.They were assisted with turning stimulation back on and increasing it from 0.2v to 0.3v, where they felt comfortable stimulation.It was recommended that they follow up with their healthcare provider if their symptoms are not controlled in the next few days.No further patient complications are anticipated or expected as a result of this event.
