CAUTION: Make certain the adhesion site is free of obstructions (for example, bandages,
clothing, etc.) before adhering the StimRouter electrode. If the StimRouter electrode is placed
partially or wholly over a bandage or other obstruction, then skin irritation or tissue damage could
occur during stimulation.
7. Firmly adhere the StimRouter electrode to the skin, making sure that the electrode is in
full contact with the skin. If the StimRouter electrode is not firmly adhered to the skin
and moves, then stimulation may become uncomfortable or ineffective.
8. Make certain that the patient programmer is within 10 feet of the StimRouter electrode
(with EPT attached).
