St Jude™ Medical Invisible Trial System for SCS and DRG
Product Information
The Invisible Trial System for spinal cord simulation (SCS) and Dorsal Root Ganglion (DRG) is an easy way to try out SCS or DRG with your doctor’s supervision. The discreet, temporary system uses a small external generator that easily hides under clothing. Therapy can be adjusted wirelessly using a familiar Apple† iPod Touch†controller. The trial device doesn’t need to be implanted and can be easily removed, so it’s a great way to try out the treatment before a full implant.™
A Simple 3-Part System
Our invisible trial system includes just three parts; an external pulse generator (EPG), thin insulated wires called leads and a digital patient controller
EPG: a compact device that sends small electric pulses to the leads
Leads: thin wires that deliver the EPG’s stimulating electrical pulses to nerves along the spinal cord
Patient Controller: a handheld device that lets you adjust your therapy wirelessly. The invisible trial system for SCS and DRG uses an Apple† iPod Touch† mobile digital device
