Event Description

Additional information received from the healthcare provider (hcp) reported the cause of the left-side therapy settings changing/not being available was due to them trying to turn the dbs sensing technology on which turned the settings to nothing.The hcp turned the settings back to what they were previously which resolved the issue.
