Only use the Remote Control and Charger provided with the Vercise Genus DBS System. Other similar models of the Remote
Control and Charger do not work with the Vercise Genus DBS System.
Pediatric Patients
Caregivers should know how to use the Remote Control to ensure the system is on and providing stimulation. Caregivers must
know how to charge the IPG (rechargeable IPG only). Healthcare providers and caregivers must discuss battery replacement
and plan ahead for end of battery life (non-rechargeable IPG only). If symptoms return, the caregiver should contact the
healthcare provider right away.
Post‑Operative
After your surgery, the medical staff provides standard medical care:
•
A CT scan may be taken to record the position of the DBS Leads and IPG.
•
You and a family member are educated on the DBS System, including:
- How to turn stimulation on and off.
- How to charge the IPG battery (if applicable).
- Expectations of stimulation in the treatment of your disease.
•
Antibiotics may be prescribed to prevent infection.
•
Post-operative pain concerns are addressed by your healthcare provider before you are discharged from the hospital.
•
A responsible adult that can fully understand the post-operative care instructions must drive you home after the surgery.
