fascia with nonabsorbable silk.

Checking system integrity

1. To ensure that you have properly connected each extension or lead to the neurostimulator,
use the clinician programmer to confirm the integrity of the connected system.
#
Caution: To use the nonsterile clinician programmer in a sterile field, place a sterile
barrier between the patient and the programming head to prevent infection. Do not
sterilize any part of the clinician programmer. Sterilization may damage the
programmer.
Note: The neurostimulator should be in the pocket during system interrogation for integrity
to ensure proper readings.
If the system integrity test results are not acceptable, refer to "Connecting the extension
or lead to the neurostimulator" on page 9.
2. Program the basic stimulation parameters and check the battery status; if applicable,
check the electrode impedances to rule out a short or open circuit.
3. Complete the stimulation assessment form.

Completing the implant procedure

1. Close and dress all incisions.
2. Ensure that a patient control device is given to the patient.
3. Complete the device tracking and patient registration paperwork and return the
documents to Medtronic.
