The Precision Plus™ SCS System consists of a small, rechargeable implant (Implantable Pulse Generator), one or more flexible leads that connect to the implant, and the external devices necessary to control therapy and charge the implant.
The Precision Plus™ system is the only SCS system with Multiple Independent Current Control, which means that each electrode contact on the lead has its own, dedicated power source. All other SCS systems have just a single power source that must be shared by all contacts on the lead. Multiple Independent Current Control allows the clinician to precisely target pain by moving the electric field between simultaneously active contacts.
Studies have shown that impedances change along the lead both at time of implant and as tissue encapsulates the lead over time. These impedance changes alter the electric fields that drive therapy. The Precision Plus system is the only system that automatically adjusts for impedance changes to maintain the prescribed therapy over time.
The Precision Plus system is the only system powered by a revolutionary Zero-Volt™ battery that can be completely discharged without causing battery failure, which can reduce surgical interventions. Similar to cell phones, conventional SCS systems rely on rechargeable batteries that fail or suffer irreversible damage when over-discharged.
Designed for greater patient comfort, the Precision Plus implant is half-the-size of other rechargeable SCS devices.
The Precision Plus system offers the only battery with a 5-year warranty, five times longer than any competitive warranty.
Precision Plus is the only SCS system that allows patients to control their therapy with a wireless patient Remote Control that never uses a cord.
Precision Plus is the first and only system that is designed to precisely target pain through patient interaction with a user-friendly Joystick.
Precision Plus is the only system that offers leads with 1 mm-spaced contacts designed to sculpt the electric field and eliminate "dead spots" along the lead.
