| Issue: | Medtronic has updated the labelling for Medtronic Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS), Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS), and Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) Therapies to include the following. 1. Enabling cycling at certain parameter settings may decrease the recharge interval for rechargeable devices and the device longevity of non-rechargeable devices. Longevity calculations for non-rechargeable devices during SCS trailling with clycling enables as calculated on the N'Vision Clinician Programmer may not be accurate. 2. The current labelling does not address the potential for epidural mass formation and subsequent spinal cord compression. |
