Recommended Modifications to ECoG Storage Settings
ECoGs stored by the RNS
®
Neurostimulator during the first several days after implantation of the
neurostimulator and leads may not be representative of the patient’s typical baseline activity. ECoG
storage settings should be reviewed to ensure that the desired activity is being stored. If it appears
that ECoGs containing the desired activity are being overwritten by later events, instruct the patient to
use the remote monitor and wand to interrogate the neurostimulator immediately after each clinical
seizure, or to interrogate several times per day. Several interrogations per day during the first several
days after implantation will not have a significant impact on battery life. Refer to RNS®
SYSTEM
LONGEVITY for more information.
• Review ECoGs
• ECoGs should be reviewed on the PDMS to determine whether detections and storage are
optimal.
