b) Ensure that no Precision SCS external
components (i.e. Remote Control, or
Charger) is left with the patient during
the MRI examination.
11. The Precision System must be
programmed to stimulation OFF before
allowing the patient within the designated
safety boundary of the MRI system.
During the MRI Examination
• Continuously monitor the patient both
visually and audibly. Check the patient
during and between each imaging
sequence. Discontinue the MRI
examination immediately if the patient
is unable to respond to questions or
reports any problems.
• Conduct the MRI examination
using only the pulse sequences
and conditions that the MRI-trained
radiologist or MRI physicist has
confirmed meets the "MRI exposure
requirements" outlined in this
document.
Post-MRI Examination Review
• Verify that the patient feels normal.
• Verify that the neurostimulator is
functional.
• Reprogram the neurostimulator to
pre-MRI settings.

Battery Longevity
The rechargeable Stimulator battery should
provide at least five years of service. In
many cases, the Stimulator battery should
provide at least 25 years of service. Battery-
longevity is dependent on the stimulation
settings and conditions. The battery-longevity
projections provided in the table below
are based on continuous stimulation with
one area and one program. The longevity
estimates are generated using projections
of typical results based on Boston Scientific
internal testing data. Actual results may
vary. To determine battery-longevity with
multiple-area stimulation, please use the
Multiple-Area Longevity Worksheet provided
below. To determine battery-longevity with
multiple stimulation programs, please use
the Multiple-Program Longevity Worksheet
provided below. If stimulation is not used
continuously, the projected battery longevity
should exceed the value shown.
