Do you need to replace your Deep Brain Stimulation Implantable Pulse Generator? Please read our paper about the Deep Brain Stimulator battery replacement.
Deep Brain Stimulator Battery Replacement / Implantable Pulse Generator Replacement
The replacement of implantable pulse generator (DBS battery replacement) is an easy procedure. The neurostimulator (implantable pulse generator) can be replaced during a short, usually outpatient procedure. Since, the leads (which located into the brain) that were implanted in the brain and the extensions will stay in same place, the procedure to replace your implantable pulse generator (Deep Brain Stimulation Battery Replacement) is so shorter and easier than your original implantation procedure. We need replace only the implantable pulse generator (battery) which located under your skin (mostly found in the chest area under your clavicle or in the abdominal area) by an easy procedure.
Since the procedure can be done under local anesthesia, the patient can be discharge same day from the hospital and can flight to his/her country on same day.
There are some important points about the replacement of deep brain stimulation DBS battery.
1. The Surgical team must be professional and so experienced, because the leads may break in the replacement procedure. If they break, the whole system must be replaced. It means doing whole the surgery again by very expensive and difficult way.
2. The Surgery team must pay the most attention to sterility. If the system will be infected, the whole system must be removed.
3. Since the average battery life is 3 to 5 years you need to find an affordable price, we are guaranteed that, you will find the best affordable price in our center.
4. The replacement procedure must be planned before the battery runs out.
Since the patient is satisfied with the current stimulation parameters, we would like to get the current parameters before the battery completely runs out. If the battery completely runs out we cannot get the current stimulation parameters. But don’t be afraid, even if the batteries completely runs out, we have a Professional team whose include Neurologists and Programming physicians are experienced about all neuromodulation companies and they are willing to find the best stimulation parameters for the patient.
Remember, although the replacement procedure seems easy, it is very important. You should choose a center which has experienced neurologists, neurosurgeons and programming physicians. Also, the whole team must be experienced about all brands and has the programmer devices of all brands.
