Pre-Conditions

The described implant procedures start with implanting the DBS Lead. It is assumed that the
following procedures have been completed:
• The stereotactic frame and/or fiducials of a frameless system are attached to the patient.
• The desired trajectory of the DBS Lead insertion path has been determined.
• The incision in the scalp has been made and the burr hole drilled.
• If using the SureTek™ Burr Hole Cover, the Base of the Burr Hole Cover has been
affixed over the burr hole. (See the manual provided with the Burr Hole Cover Kit for
instructions for use.)
• The desired trajectory and DBS Lead depth may have been verified by microelectrode
recording or an appropriate means.

Implanting the DBS Lead

1. Prepare the DBS Lead for implant. Visually inspect the DBS Lead and determine it to be
acceptable for implantation.
2. Pass the DBS Lead through the cannula to ensure proper fit. Then remove the DBS Lead from
the cannula.
3. Insert the cannula (with cannula stylet) into the brain to the desired depth.
Note: Cannula depth depends on physician's preference.
