battery only) - The rechargeable battery is
depleted and should be charged as soon
as possible. When the battery is in a
discharged state, therapy is not available.
Electrode - A metal piece near the tip of the
lead. Electrodes deliver electrical pulses to
a targeted area or areas of the brain.
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) - A
strong field of energy near electrical or
magnetic devices that could prevent the
neurostimulator from functioning properly.
EOS (End of Service) - A notification that the
