It was reported that the patient had been without therapy from the right lead for several months before the revision procedure due to a lead fracture.During this period, the patient was programmed for unilateral stimulation and reported a return of pain symptoms.The patient subsequently underwent a lead revision procedure.The fractured right lead was explanted in its entirety and replaced with a new lead without complications.The patient reported no harm or injury.The hospital discarded the explanted lead; therefore, product analysis could not be performed.As a result, the root cause of the reported lead fracture could not be determined.The device history record (dhr) was reviewed.No relevant nonconformances were found.Following the revision procedure, the reactiv8 system was activated, allowing the patient to initiate bilateral stimulation.
