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.
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.
84%
highest back pain responder rate reported at 12 months in similar RCTs‡ (≥50% improvement).1
69%
of DTM™ SCS patients were profound back pain responders (≥80% pain relief).3
Your Inceptiv™ SCS patients can now enjoy greater freedom.
More consistent therapy, more time for life
Best full-body MRI access
The first and only full-body 1.5T and 3T MRI SCS system§
82%
of patients are expected to need an
MRI within 5 years post implant6
90%
access to MRI scanners7§
Inceptiv™ offers the most access to life-changing diagnostic imaging§
