Vercise Gevia Stimulator Battery - Boston Scientific Vercise Gevia Instrucciones De Uso

Vercise Gevia™ Information for Prescribers
To turn stimulation on and off on the ETS, press the ON/OFF button on the ETS 2 (Figure 1). When
the stimulation is on, the Stim Indicator Light will blink green. The ETS 2 runs on two AA batteries
that are provided with every ETS 2 kit. When the batteries need replacement, the Battery Indicator
Light will change from a flashing green to a flashing yellow.
Be sure that stimulation is off (the indicator light is not blinking) before opening the Trial
Stimulator's battery compartment.
To install new batteries:
1. Confirm that stimulation is OFF by confirming that the stimulation indicator light is not blinking.
2. On the rear of the ETS 2, push in slightly and slide down the battery compartment cover.
3. Remove the old batteries.
4. Place two new AA batteries in the slots matching the positive (+) and negative (-) markings in
the compartment.
5. Align the battery compartment cover on the case and slide the cover into position until is snaps
closed.
6. Both the Battery Indicator light and the Stim On indicator lights will emit an amber glow for 15
seconds after which the battery indicator light blinks green.

Vercise Gevia Stimulator Battery

The Vercise Gevia stimulator is rechargeable. Patients should expect a daily recharging time of 15
to 30 minutes or a periodic recharging time of 3 to 4 hours every 1 to 2 weeks, but their recharge
routine may vary depending on their stimulation parameters. High power users will require more
frequent charging. The Clinician Programmer will provide a recharging estimate based on 24 hours
per day of stimulation at the programmed settings. Boston Scientific recommends any recharge
schedule that fits the patient's schedule and lifestyle while maintaining sufficient charge to maintain
stimulation.
If fully charging the Stimulator, patients should be instructed to charge until the Charger emits the
end of charge double beep.
The rechargeable stimulator battery should provide at least five years of service. In many cases,
the stimulator battery should provide at least 25 years of service. Battery life is dependent on
the stimulation settings and conditions. Over time and with repeated charging, the battery in the
stimulator will lose its ability to recover its full capacity. As a result, over time, the stimulator may
require shorter intervals between charges. The stimulator will need replacement when stimulation
no longer can be maintained with routine charging.
