PrecisionTM Plus Rechargeable Spinal Cord Stimulation System
The Power of Multiple Independent Current Control Only the Precision Plus pulse generator has the ability to control the level of power delivered to simultaneously active contacts.*
The 16 sources that Precision Plus features, give physicians an unmatched power and flexibility in targeting complex pain syndromes, difficult to treat with conventional systems.
Impedance Happens. Precision Adjusts. Impedance varies from contact to contact at time of implant. As patient scarring occurs, impedances change over time.d Precision Plus is the ONLY SCS System that can automatically adjust to impedance changes to maintain therapy over time.d
Joystick Control There is no easier way to navigate the electrical field and resulting stimulation to the painful areas than by using a joystick. Moreover, the patient can use the joystick during programming to match paresthesia with painful areas: Patients know their pain best.
Tightly Spaced Contacts The percutaneous and surgical leads with tightly spaced contact arrays provide an excellent spatial resolution and allow for shift by 1% of electrical field which enables fine tuning the stimulation.
Bionic Navigator™
A user-friendly clinician programmer software that makes adjusting parameters of stimulation easy. It enables physicians to assess stimulation combinations at a suprathreshold level allowing for patient’s continuous feedback. Thousands of combinations e can be tested in only minutes.

EGL™ Scan Shows Relative Lead Position in Seconds
Only the Precision Plus SCS System offers EGL (Electronically Generated Lead) Scan™ Technology, an exciting proprietary technology that shows the relative position of two implanted leads. In conjunction with the Bionic Navigator™ software, physicians can use EGL™ Scan information to assess relative rostrocaudal lead migration.
The Precision Plus SCS System generates and measures electrical stimulation field potentials. These measurements are used to develop a spatial map that indicates the relative position of the contacts to one another. EGL Scan Technology is the only system to date that uses electrical stimulation field potentials to allow clinicians to visualize relative lead position without fluoro or x-ray.
Technology
Show relative lead position without fluoro in seconds.
In about 20 seconds, the results are displayed graphically on your Clinician Programmer.
Efficacy
Efficient and accurate programming may result in sustained therapy.
Maximize practice efficiency by minimizing the need for costly fluoro or x-ray.

Fluoroscopy
The fluoroscopic images (Figures A and C) show different offsets between two leads. The SmoothWave Technology (Figures B and D) detected the offsets and displayed graphical representations of the lead offsets.
Rechargeable Battery
Designed for Physician Convenience and Patient Comfort Intended to reduce pocket pain, the Precision IPG has atraumatic, rounded edges and a volume of just 22cc. And with an implant depth of up to 2 cm, the Precision IPG offers TWICE the maximum recommended implant depth of similarly sized IPGs*. But patient comfort is about more than a small size, the Precision Plus IPG is designed to offer patient satisfaction with unsurpassed innovative features.
Precision™ Plus SCS System Uses the Proprietary Lithium-Ion Zero Volt™ Battery Technology, a Significant Advance in SCS Therapy.
Designed for Reliability Precision Plus can be fully discharged or overdischargeda several times without irrecoverably damaging its battery, providing confidence that Precision Plus will operate for years to come even with noncompliant patients.
Designed for Longevity With an estimated battery life up to 25 years under certain stimulation parametersb, Precision Plus potentially will reduce the need of replacements and surgeries for your patient.

Base Station for Charger
Convenient and user-friendly remote control The Precision Remote Control provides patients with convenient wireless communication. This allows patients to simultaneously see the Remote Control screen, make changes to their stimulation and feel the changes in real-time.
In seconds, patients can turn stimulation on or off, modify the intensity of their stimulation, or change programs to adjust the areas of stimulation.
The Precision Remote Control is easy to learn and easy to use – with five large buttons and clear onscreen information. Patients can find the stimulation and program that provide the best comfort.
Only Precision™ Remote Control allows patients to make real-time adjustments over a convenient wireless range of up to 60 cm to date.
The Precision™ Remote Control is easy to use and gives patients real-time control over their own therapy.
