A percutaneous octad lead with 8 electrodes at the distal end is used for single and dual lead placement and configuration.
Octad leads cover 2 or more vertebral segments, helping to optimize pain coverage. They also provide electronic “repositioning” to manage changes in stimulation coverage due to vertical lead movement. Finally, they provide the longest electrode span and most spacing options on the market.
Percutaneous leads may be configured to create simple or complex electrode arrays, utilizing up to 4 leads. Use the TargetStim® programming tools to transition between electrode configurations and quickly steer stimulation.
This technical manual includes the instructions for use for the 1×4 Pisces Quad® 3487A, Pisces Quad CompactTM 3887, and Pisces Quad PlusTM 3888 Lead Kit.
This technical manual includes the instructions for use for the 1x8 Standard, Compact and Sub-Compact Lead Kits.
The surgical lead family includes a range of sizes, electrode configurations, and anchoring options.
