JUDE MEDICAL - Product Usage: St. Jude Medical Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS)leads are intended to deliver stimulation to target areas in the brain. DBS extensions are intended to connect the leads to implantable pulse generators (IPGs). St. Jude Medical DBS leads are designed for introduction into the brain using standard stereotactic neurosurgical techniques. DBS system delivers electrical stimulation to a precisely targeted area in the brain. Leads are implanted in the brain and are connected to extensions, which are passed under the skin and are connected to the neurostimulator. Leads for the St. Jude Medical Infinity DBS System feature electrodes on a stiff distal end with an inactive lead tip. The proximal end of the lead contains contact bands that correspond with each of the distal electrodes and an inactive band that functions as a contact for a setscrew when connecting to a compatible extension. The 8-channel leads contain cylindrical and segmented electrodes. The segmented electrodes can be activated independently to focus stimulation in one direction to help target desired neurological structures. As stated in Clinician manual (ARTEN600008305 Rev A), leads materials which are intended to come into contact with tissue are Platinum-iridium and polycarbonate urethane. In addition, drawing for the Stim Tip, 1-3-3-1 Directional DBS lead requires that the electrode material shall be 90/10 Platinum Iridium.
