Explanting or Replacing the Stimulator

1. Turn off the Stimulator.
2. Palpate the subclavicular area to locate the Stimulator.
3. Surgically open the pocket where the Stimulator is located. Be careful not to damage the
implanted components to allow for proper analysis following explant.
CAUTION: Do not use electrocautery as it will damage the Stimulator.
Note: The incision should be large enough to remove the Stimulator from the pocket.
4. Withdraw the Stimulator from the pocket.
5. Using the Torque Wrench, unscrew the header Setscrews to release the DBS Extensions.
CAUTION: Loosen the Setscrew only as much as necessary to remove the DBS Extension.
Loosening the Setscrew too much will cause it to fall out.
Note: To tighten the Setscrew, rotate the Torque Wrench clockwise. To loosen the
Setscrew, rotate the Torque Wrench counterclockwise.
6. Remove the DBS Extensions from the Stimulator.
7. If the Stimulator is to be replaced, reconnect the new Stimulator by following the procedures in
"Connecting the Stimulator".
8. If the DBS Extensions will remain implanted, you may optionally clean the proximal ends of the
DBS Extensions, attach Lead Boots, and coil the excess DBS Extension material in the pocket.
9. Close the incision.
10. Ship the explanted Stimulator to Boston Scientific.
CAUTION: Be careful not to damage any remaining implanted components when closing the
incision.
