– IPG drop — If the IPG is dropped more than 30 cm (12 in) onto a hard surface, it should
not be used.
– Setscrew cautions — Counterclockwise rotation of a set screw beyond one or two
revolutions while retracting it from the connector port may disengage the setscrew from
the connector block. Do not use any hex wrench other than the one packaged with the
IPG.
– Leads should be handled with great care at all times. Any severe bending, kinking,
stretching, or handling with surgical instruments may cause permanent damage to the
lead body or the cuff. Do not implant a lead that was dropped.
– Lead insulators attract small particles, such as lint and dust; therefore, to minimize
contamination, protect the lead from materials shedding these substances. Handle the
lead with sterile surgical gloves that have been rinsed in sterile water.
– Do not immerse leads in mineral oil or silicone oil.
• Static electricity — The respiratory sensing lead is sensitive to static electricity.
Therefore, the shorting bar should be left in place and removed just prior to implant.
Cautions:
• The black, U-shaped shorting bar must not be removed except during
tunneling and immediately prior to connecting the lead to the IPG.
• After tunneling, if the lead is not immediately connected to the IPG, the black,
U-shaped shorting bar must be reattached.
