Overview

Relief in tune with pain

Inceptiv™ Spinal Cord Stimulator

Discover why Inceptiv™ is the most advanced SCS system with closed-loop technology

Need for consistent therapy​

Fixed-output systems do not account for shifts in lead-to-spinal cord distance, which may result in inconsistent therapy dose4 and can compromise patient experience.

With fixed-output systems, patients need to make adjustments to deliver optimal therapy, regardless of waveform. Under- and overdosing can lead to variable therapy experience.

Fixed imput

Variability in electrode distance to spinal cord due to activities and position

Inceptiv™ SCS listens and responds

Inceptiv™ SCS system with closed loop technology senses* neutral response and automatically adjusts stimulation to maintain therapy level during all patients activities.


Automatic:
does not depend on adjustments from the patient to maintain stimulation


Responsive:
instantly adjusts therapy delivery in real time


Seamless:
provides consistent therapy while patients perform a full range of daily activities

Inceptiv™ actively listens*5 to the spinal cord and responds instantly.

Superior back pain relief , personalised

The Inceptiv™ system delivers DTM™ SCS therapy, now optimized moment-to-moment

Closed-loop SCS offers flexibility of therapy programming, based on patient preference.

highest back pain responder rate reported at 12 months in similar RCTs‡ (≥50% improvement)1.

of DTM™ SCS patients were profound back pain responders (≥80% pain relief).1

Sensing signals may not be measurable in all cases.

DTM™ SCS superior outcomes demonstrated using open-loop SCS therapy.

Descriptive comparison, including studies with similar design (RCT; randomization >100 subjects; comparing 2 SCS therapies; with at least 12-months follow-up) and patient populations (inclusion/exclusion criteria; baseline demographics) with back pain responder rates reported. This is not based on a statistical analysis of outcomes between studies.

Your Inceptiv™ SCS patients can now enjoy greater freedom.

More consistent therapy, more time for life
