Questions I Got Wrong On Quiz Or Exam Flashcards
20 patients in PROCO = what statistical power of a parallel design study with how many patients?
Over 100
What waveform is available on WWA and SWW and not on previous BSN systems?
Microburst and fast
Microburst settings of 450 Hz and 12.5 ms on off defaults to how many pulses per packet?
6
What was the patient population of the whisper study?
Crippling ODI
Mean chronic pain for 17 years
Previously implanted
Paresthesia guided sub perception therapies include:
HR3D, Microburst, FAST
The 10 K sweet spot was found using what anode cathode configurations in PROCO?
Simple bipole
Max frequency on CP
1200
Difference between interburst and intramural burst
Inter= packet to packet Intra = pulse to pulse
‘Contour Setup’ in automation sets what up ?
Programs 10, 13, & 16 at 0% Pth
At what percent do we lock out the Pth in FAST?
100%
T or F: all alpha IPG’s and ETs will appear on stim search on RC regardless of pairing mode.
FALSE
What are the contour LR settings?
300 ms, 50 Hz, leave mA as is
How many patients are in the metzger study
420
What is the contact to contact span of the artisan paddle ?
34mm
What is the contact span of Coveredge?
36mm
What is the contact to contact span for coveredge X?
52
Can an iPG be discoverable with the magnet still on?
No
5 elements of credibility
Character, engagement, self awareness, composure, competence
Surround inhibitoion = precise targeting + BLANK BLANK BLANK?
Proper neural dosing
What is the target of traditional SCS?
Inhibitory and excitatory neurons
T or F: fast is a paresthesia guided sub perception therapy
True
What does the FAST I3D’s focus default to?
8mm
What is the intensity level we use to paresthesia map in FAST?
2
True or False: fast is a set it and forget it therapy
False
What do you open to start a Perm Linear ST case?
Lead kit only
Which mode on CPS automatically adjusts the focus when trolling?
Navigate
What mode should we always use for intraop testing?
ETroll
What kind of study was Lumina?
Real world, multi center, observational, retrospective
What parameters are considered in neural dosing (pre-halo)
Amp, rate, pulse width
Tru of false illumina 3D is in every IPg except precision plus
True
What percent of patients had low back only pain in Lumina?
42%
3 options for LeadSync to pop up?
Green check, yellow question mark, yellow X
Whisper looked at what?
Paresthesia guided Subperception at frequencies lower then 1.2 kHz
Whisper was the 1st RCT that studied previously implanted patients at < 1.2 kHz subp. T or F
True
With fast, both anodes and cathodes are producing stimulations and we are steering 2 CPS’s. T or F
True
Why don’t we increase PW with fast and tritate focus instead?
PW too high = over stim
PW too high = false paresthesia overlap
Focus provides broad and narrow coverage
If we decrease (-) the focus in fast, what happens to the anode CPS compared to the cathode CPS? And what happens when we increase the focus (+)?
Decreasing= gets closer, becomes more narrow Increase= moves further away, becomes more broad
