Introduction
The Clinical Programmer (MN0700) is part of the Spinal Modulation Neurostimulator System. It is
intended to be used by the clinical investigator or a Spinal Modulation representative to query and
program the Neurostimulator (NS), to retrieve data from the NS and to allow for adjustment of the
patient’s therapy. This User Manual gives detailed instructions on how to use the Clinical Programmer
safely, how to recharge it and how to use it to set up the patient’s pain management therapy.
Indications for Use
The Spinal Modulation Neurostimulator System is indicated as an aid in the management of chronic,
intractable, neuropathic pain of the lower limbs‐including unilateral or bilateral pain, associated with the
following conditions: radicular pain, peripheral neuropathies.
Description
Patients who are indicated for Spinal Modulation’s Implantable Neurostimulator System (INS) system
will first undergo a trial period using an external Trial Neurostimulator System (TNS) connected to leads
placed within the epidural space near the dorsal root ganglion (DRG). Up to four leads may be placed
and connected to the Neurostimulator.
Although the leads and stimulator hardware used differ, the programmer hardware and instructions for
programming the TNS and INS devices are the same.
NOTE: In this manual the general abbreviation “NS” is used for information which applies to both
TNS and INS. In all other cases the specific abbreviations “TNS” or “INS” are used.
For specific description of the TNS and INS system components and implant procedures, refer to the
relevant labeling.
Two programmers are available to interact with the NS device.
1. The Clinical Programmer described in this user manual is used to program the stimulation
parameters for the NS, as determined by the investigator. The NS delivers the programmed
stimulation parameters (energy) to the implanted Leads.
2. The Patient Programmer allows the patient to adjust the stimulation settings of the NS devices
within limits preset by the investigator. The Patient Programmer also allows the patient to turn
stimulation off, if necessary. For further information and instructions related to the patient
programmer, refer to the respective user manual.
Warnings
The Warnings listed below pertain to the Clinical Programmer only:
•
The investigator must be trained by Spinal Modulation personnel before using the Clinical
Programmer.
•
Do not use the Clinical Programmer with a NS device that appears to be faulty or fails to
properly communicate.
•
Improper use of the Clinical Programmer may cause irreversible injury to the patient. All
subjects are to be awake and conversant during the procedure to minimize the likelihood of any
nerve damage.
•
Always set the NS device amplitude to 0 µA when repositioning a lead or attaching the
Connector Cable to the external TNS. When restarting stimulation, increase the NS amplitude
slowly until the desired paresthesia is achieved.
RF Operating Frequencies
Nearby equipment emitting strong magnetic fields can interfere with RF communication, even if the
other equipment complies with CISPR emission requirements. The operating characteristics are as
follows:
MICS band: 402‐405 MHz
The effective radiated power is below the limits as specified in
Europe: EN ETSI 301 839‐2
USA FCC 47 CFR Part 95; 95.601‐95.673 Subpart E, 95.1201‐95.1219
FCC ID: Y8L‐MN0700
This device may not interfere with stations operating in the 400.150–406.000 MHz band in the
Meteorological Aids, Meteorological Satellite, and Earth Exploration Satellite Services and must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Precautions
The following precautions should be taken to avoid damage to the Clinical Programmer and to assure
proper function:
•
Do not drop or mishandle the Clinical Programmer. Physical damage to the Clinical Programmer
may impair its function.

Magnet
A magnet is built into the Clinical Programmer. It is located on the back side of the Programmer
underneath the indent with the magnet symbol (shown below).
The NS system has the capability of detecting the presence of a magnet. The magnet puts the NS device
in communication mode, allowing it to connect to the Programmer.
An alternate function of the magnet is that by holding the magnet over the device long enough, all
stimulation therapy will be switched off. (Refer to “Workspace ‐ Profile>System” section for more
information).
PRECAUTION: Keep the programmer magnet away from credit cards. It may erase the
magnetic strip and render the card useless.

Appendix II: INS Battery Life
The following four tables estimate INS battery life under the given load impedance conditions.
Tables 1 through 4 list estimated longevity based on 1‐lead stimulation, active 24 hours a day. To
estimate longevity for multiple active leads and to account for daily usage, use the following formula:
Where,
C2 =
3014
Longevity for Lead 2 Settings
- 35
Daily Usage Lead 2
And,
Daily Usage Lead 1, 2, 3 and 4 are fractional values equal to the number of hours stimulation is enabled
for each lead daily divided by 24 hours.
Note: Do not enter values for C1, C2, C3 or C4 for corresponding leads that are inactive.
Example:
Estimate longevity for 2 lead stimulation with lead 1 settings of 0.8mA, 40Hz, 200µs across 600 ohms
continuously stimulating, and lead 2 settings of 1.0mA, 60Hz, 400µs across 1Kohm stimulating for 16
hours per day.
From Table 1 (600 ohms), longevity for lead 1 settings = 58.9 months
From Table 2 (1 Kohm), longevity for lead 2 settings = 34.1 months
Calculated C1 = (3014 / 58.9 – 35) * (24 / 24) = 16.2
Calculated C2 = (3014 / 34.1 – 35) * (16 / 24) = 35.6
Estimated longevity for this example = 3014 / (16.2 + 35.6 + 35) = 34.7 months
