Contraindications and Warnings
Diathermy should not be used on patients implanted with a neurostimulation system, as it can cause tissue damage or death.
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) can affect neurostimulator function, potentially causing serious patient injury or death, system damage, or operational changes.
Precautions
Refer to the indications sheet, device implant manual, and system eligibility reference manual for additional information.
Patient counseling information and clinical study results are available in the clinical summary booklet.
Appendices A and B provide further information on electromagnetic interference and MRI procedures.
