Description

Description
The surgical paddle leads function as a component of Boston Scientific's Spinal Cord Stimulation systems
by delivering electrical stimulation to the nerve structures in the dorsal aspect of the spinal cord, resulting
in an inhibition of pain sensation.

Surgical Paddle Lead

2x8 Surgical Paddle Lead

The 2x8 Surgical Lead is available in lengths of 50 cm and 70 cm. The distal (paddle) end of the lead has
two columns of eight evenly spaced planar electrodes. Each electrode is 3x2 mm in size. On the proximal
side, this lead employs 2 lead tails. The end of each tail has eight evenly spaced contacts; identical to
the percutaneous leads. The right tail of the paddle lead is laser-etched to allow for ease of right and left
identification. Each tail can be inserted into an IPG, or into a lead extension.
4x8 Surgical Paddle Lead
Two versions of the 4x8 Surgical Lead are available, the CoverEdge 32 Surgical Lead with tightly-spaced
electrodes and the CoverEdge 32 X Surgical Lead with widely-spaced electrodes. Both versions of the
4x8 Surgical Lead are available in lengths of 50cm and 70cm. The distal (paddle) end of the lead has four
columns of 8 evenly spaced planar electrodes. Each electrode is 1x3.4 mm in size. On the proximal side,
the lead employs 4 tails. The end of each tail has 8 evenly spaced contacts; identical to the percutaneous
leads. Each tail of the paddle lead is uniquely identified with marker bands. Reading from left to right with
the electrodes faced down, the first tail has one marker band, the second has two, the third has three,
and the fourth has four marker bands. Each tail corresponds to the respective column of contacts on the
paddle. Each tail can be inserted into an IPG, or into a lead extension.
Note: The 4x8 Surgical Lead is intended for use with the Precision Spectra System only.

Lead Extension

Lead Extensions are designed to connect the percutaneous and paddle leads to the IPG for spinal cord
stimulation. The extension may be added to a lead to externalize the lead for a trial procedure or to extend
the lead when a permanent IPG is implanted.
Lead extensions are available in lengths of 25 cm, 35 cm, and 55 cm. The extension can be connected to
either the Trial Stimulator (via an OR Cable Assembly included in the Leads Kit) or directly to an IPG.
