Patient Loses EPT
When a patient loses an EPT, he or she will need to electronically register the patient programmer
and new EPT. See “Registering the Patient Programmer/EPT” section of this guide. All data
stored on the patient programmer will copy to the new EPT. However, since the usage history is
stored on the EPT, any usage history that was not copied to the clinician programmer database
is lost with the lost EPT.
Patient Brings New EPT and New Patient Programmer
If a patient receives a replacement EPT and patient programmer, then the patient will need to
return to the clinic. The patient data stored on the clinician programmer database must be copied
to the new EPT and patient programmer.
Copying Patient Data to New Components
To copy patient data to new components:
1.
Connect the patient programmer to the clinician programmer and the configuration
cradle.
Make sure the patient’s EPT and the patient programmer are charged (if not, connect
them to a charger).
Make sure the patient programmer and the EPT are no more than a few inches apart
and not touching.
The StimRouter application will detect the unregistered patient programmer and ask
whether you want to register this patient programmer to an EPT now.
Press “Yes.”
Once the patient programmer and EPT are registered, press “OK.”
From the Patient List, select the patient’s record and press “Open.” Once the patient
record is opened, all patient data except for history will copy to the patient’s new patient
programmer and EPT.
