Connecting the extension or lead to the neurostimulator

#
Caution: Before connecting components, wipe off any body fluids and dry all
connections. Fluids in the connection may result in stimulation at the connection site,
intermittent stimulation, or loss of stimulation.
1. Wipe the extension or lead connector pins with sterile gauze. If necessary, use sterile
(United States Pharmacopeia [USP]) water or a nonionic antibiotic solution.
2. Make sure the connector block receptacles are dry and clean.
3. Insert the appropriate extension or lead connector pins into the appropriate
neurostimulator socket until they are seated fully within the connector block (Figure 1).
Notes:
During insertion, some resistance is typical.
■
To retract the setscrews, insert the torque wrench into the self-sealing grommet and
■
rotate the setscrews counterclockwise; however, do not remove the setscrews from the
connector block.
#
Caution: Do not insert the extension or lead connector into the connector block if the
setscrews are not sufficiently retracted. Unretracted setscrews may damage the
extension or lead and prevent the extension or lead from fully seating into the
connector block.
