Precautions
Physician training is required.
Medical Devices/Therapies. The following medical therapies or procedures may turn stimulation
off or may cause permanent damage to the Stimulator, particularly if used in close proximity to the
device:
• lithotripsy — high-output sound or shock waves often used to treat gall stones and kidney stones
• electrocautery — the use of a heated electric probe to stop bleeding during surgery
• external defibrillation — the use of electrically charged paddles to restart the heart in an
emergency
• radiation therapy — ionizing energy commonly used to treat cancer. Any damage to the device
by radiation may not be immediately detectable.
• ultrasonic scanning — very high frequency sound waves used to produce images of internal
organs or tissue for diagnostic purposes
• high-output ultrasound — high frequency sound waves which may be applied as physical therapy
to treat certain bone/muscle injuries, or for muscle stimulation, or to improve blood flow
X-ray and CT scans may damage the Stimulator if stimulation is on. X-Ray and CT Scans are unlikely
to damage the Stimulator if stimulation is turned off.
