Intended purpose
The external stimulator (Prospera EPG) is a device that is able to deliver the same therapies as the implantable stimulator. The external stimulator is used during implantation to perform intraoperative tests. To this end, the implanted leads are connected to the external stimulator via the intraoperative test cable. During the trial phase, the external stimulator is connected to the trial leads and attached to the patient’s body with an affixation pouch. The effectiveness of the delivered therapies can be assessed during the trial phase.
