Event Description
It was reported that the patient was unable to charge her implantable pulse generator (ipg) and experiencing inadequate stimulation.The physician assessed that the ipg had prematurely depleted and the patient underwent an ipg revision procedure.
 
Manufacturer Narrative
The returned ipg was analyzed and it confirmed premature battery depletion.Analysis of the patients database revealed the ipg was in service for approximately 6 months 18 days with an energy use index (eui) range of 20.5, and the expected range would be about 24 months per the direction for use.The patients data also shows a sudden battery drop at the time of the implant procedure, from 2.992 volts to 2.884 volts.The analysis did confirm that the incident shortened the devices longevity significantly.
