A neural-tissue electrical stimulation lead adaptor is a sterile implantable device designed to connect existing neurostimulation leads to a replacement neurostimulator when the original lead connections are incompatible. It enables continued therapy by adapting the lead interface to work with a new stimulator, such as those used in spinal cord or deep brain stimulation systems.
This adaptor is supplied as a sterile implant and is intended for single-use during surgical implantation. Surgeons secure the connections using tools like a hex wrench and seal them with medical adhesive to prevent fluid ingress. The device contains no medication and is not reusable.
