Overview
The Intellis™ with AdaptiveStim™ implantable neurostimulator is powered by proprietary Overdrive™ battery technology. It is designed to overcome limitations with other SCS systems and is optimized for the increased energy demands of High Dose (HD) therapy. Medtronic exclusive features on the Intellis™ platform include AdaptiveStim™ , wireless trialing system, and SureScan™ full-body MRI technologies.
Indications
A Medtronic implantable neurostimulation system is indicated for spinal cord stimulation (SCS) as an aid in the management of chronic, intractable pain of the trunk and/or limbs – including unilateral or bilateral pain associated with the following
conditions:
Failed Back Syndrome (FBS) or low back syndrome or failed
back
Radicular pain syndrome or radiculopathies resulting in pain
secondary to FBS or herniated disk
Postlaminectomy pain
Multiple back operations
Unsuccessful disk surgery
Degenerative Disk Disease (DDD)/herniated disk pain
refractory to conservative and surgical interventions
Peripheral causalgia
Epidural fibrosis
Arachnoiditis or lumbar adhesive arachnoiditis
Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD), or causalgia
