St Jude Medical Infinity DBS System 8CH Flex Extn - Brain electrical stimulation system, antitremor

Intended purpose

Deep brain stimulation extensions are intended to connect the leads to implantable pulse generators.

Functional description

The extensions are designed to connect the lead to the IPG. One end is designed to receive the proximal end of the lead, and the opposite end is designed for insertion and connection with the IPG. The 8-channel Infinity extensions connect to 8-channel Infinity leads. Infinity extensions have coloured bands that can help during implantation to differentiate between the right and left sides of the body. The devices (except model 6373) are MR conditional.
