How The Patient Programmer Works - Medtronic DBS Patient programmer Manuel D'utilisation

How the patient programmer
works
The patient programmer is used to control
and monitor your implanted neurostimulator
or neurostimulators. For example, you will
use your patient programmer to:
•
Turn your therapy on or off.
•
Check the neurostimulator and patient
programmer battery status.
•
Alert you when you need to check the
status of the neurostimulator battery.
•
Change therapy settings.
Note: Make sure to keep your patient
programmer with you at all times in the event
that you need to adjust your therapy or turn
your therapy off.
1
Your clinician will turn this feature on or off and also
set the time of day that it will alert you.
2
Your clinician will set up the therapy settings you will
be able to adjust depending on your specific therapy
requirements. Discuss this with your doctor.
