It was reported that during a stage one procedure, intraoperative lead testing showed abnormal results with the contacts displaying all red.The lead was tested multiple times and continued to show all red- high impedances - on the contacts after reinsertion into the brain.A second lead was then tested and showed the same all red results, and a second testing cable was also tried with the same findings.The lead was removed and placed in sterile saline on the sterile table, where testing showed all green - normal impedances- and the cannula was pulled up 24 mm in the brain to ensure it was not near the electrodes.During continued testing, the contacts reportedly began to show ¿green.¿ no patient complications have been reported as a result of this event.During follow up for additional information, the manufacturer representative (rep) reiterated that troubleshooting included moving the cannula, swapping out the lead and test cable, testing the lead the second lead in a saline bath.They reconfirmed that after running the impedance check a couple times, the second lead received normal impendences.
