Neurostimulation
ANS is an innovative technological leader in the spinal cord stimulation (SCS) segment of the neuromodulation market. SCS systems -- similar to cardiac pacemakers -- use a small implanted device, either a pulse generator or receiver, to generate low-level electrical impulses that travel through leads to stimulate targeted nerves along the spinal cord. The stimulation interferes with the transmission of pain signals to the brain, replacing painful sensations with a more pleasing sensation called paresthesia.

ANS’ advanced lead designs deliver electrical impulses to targeted nerves with precision. Optimum configuration options are possible with up to 16 closely spaced electrodes, which target specific nerves along the spinal cord. ANS’ percutaneous, Lamitrode, and trial leads are easy to implant, offer enhanced stability, and provide physicians increased flexibility in programming to accommodate patients’ changing pain patterns. In addition, ANS’ lead extensions are technologically superior, offering a low-profile design of soft silicone for greater patient comfort, a multi-seal chamber to ensure high conductivity and energy efficiency, and a quick connection system for ease of implantation. |

Renew is ANS’ radio-frequency (RF) system, which uses an external power source, or transmitter, to convey radio-frequency signals through the skin to an implanted receiver. In turn, the receiver sends mild electrical energy to the leads placed over the spinal cord, which target the nerves causing pain. RF neurostimulation is especially effective in treating complex and multi-extremity pain. |

ANS’ implantable pulse generator (IPG) system, Genesis, is fully implanted under the skin with connected leads placed over the spinal cord. While the system’s power source is completely internal, a programmer can be used by the clinician to reprogram the implanted IPG or by the patient to adjust certain parameters. IPG systems often are best suited to treat simple pain patterns, which require less energy to treat, thereby creating less drain on the battery and fewer associated replacements. |

Rapid Programmer is an innovative programming platform designed to simplify programming of all current ANS systems. This palm-sized programmer features an intuitive touch screen interface, which clinicians can easily navigate to create multiple programs, adjust variables, and generate pain and stimulation maps.
With its instant-on capability and lightweight design, Rapid Programmer allows clinicians to quickly and efficiently test patients intraoperatively and to program postoperatively. |
