Troubleshooting
Impedance Issue with the Stimulator
Issue
Out of range ("Bad") impedance
at a follow-up or programming
visit
Presentation
Red impedance icon(s) shows on the
Patient Device screen when the CP is
connected to the Stimulator
Resolution
Press the impedance button to refresh impedance values.
•
If the bad impedance is still present, check that the
•
Stimulator is connected to the trial cable (Basic Trial
Cable or Percutaneous Extension). If using a ground pad,
confirm the ground pad is connected to the patient and
to the trial cable. Refresh the impedance values.
If the bad impedance is still present, reprogram the
•
stimulation using electrodes with in-range impedance
values.
If impedance is still bad on all electrodes, device
•
replacement may be necessary. Contact Axonics.
