Additional Manufacturer Narrative

(b)(4).Review of the lead impedance and ecog data was performed and the data is consistent with a lead break.Investigation of the returned explanted lead suggests that lead damage was caused by the possible use of a titanium cranial plate (non-neuropace product) to secure the lead (commonly referred to as a "dog bone").Neuropace was unable to conclusively determine the root cause of the lead break.

Event or Problem Description
|
|
In (b)(6) 2020 the patient reported feeling an electric shock sensation around his right eye.The treating clinician, in conjunction with neuropace field support, reviewed the patient's ecogs and identified artifact which was indicative of a lead break on the left depth lead.The clinician reprogrammed the lead and the patient reported a decrease in the frequency and severity of the sensation.In (b)(6) 2020, the clinician disabled detection and stimulation in the left depth lead which was successful in eliminating the sensation.A lead replacement was performed in (b)(6) 2020 and a new lead was implanted and connected to the neurostimulator.After the replacement there have been no reports of painful sensation and the lead is functioning as intended, per the treating clinician.
