Manual Overview

This manual provides basic information for the implantation and

operation of the Precision

™

Implantable Pulse Generator (IPG),

SC Model 1100. This information includes an overview of accessories

for programming and powering the IPG, clinical and surgical consid-

erations, storage and handling requirements, and relevant precautions

concerning an implanted neurostimulator. Additional information on

system components and operation can be found in the Precision Phy-

sician Systems Handbook.

Device Description

The Advanced Bionics

Precision implantable pulse generator system

is intended to treat chronic pain by electrically stimulating the spinal

cord. The multi-channel, multi-electrode device capability provides

flexibility in conjunction with ease of programming. A rechargeable

battery increases IPG longevity and output capability while reducing

size and device replacement surgeries. The implant is controlled by a

handheld Remote Control, and can be engaged by a clinician com-

puter using proprietary BionicNavigator

™

software. Periodically, the

implant battery requires replenishing with an RF charging device pro-

vided in the Patient Take Home Kit SC-6000.
