Precautions
Activities Requiring Coordination
Loss of coordination is a possible side effect of DBS therapy. You should use caution when doing activities that require
coordination, even if you were able to do them before receiving therapy (for example, swimming).
Bathing
Patients should exercise reasonable caution when bathing.
Cell Phones and Other Portable RF Communication Devices
Interference caused by cell phones is not expected. The full effects of interaction with cell phones are unknown at this time.
Portable RF communications equipment (for example, cell phones) should be kept at least 6 in (15 cm) from the area of the
implanted device. If interference occurs, move the cell phone away from the implanted IPG or turn off the phone. If there is a
concern or problem, contact your healthcare provider.
