Intended Use
The Multiprogram Trial Stimulator System is indicated for the treatment of chronic pain of the trunk and limbs, either as the sole mitigating agent or as an adjunct to other modes of therapy used in a multidisciplinary approach. The Multiprogram Trial Stimulator is intended to be used with St. Jude Medical Neuromodulation Division percutaneous trial leads and external test extensions to deliver paresthesia to single or multiple painful sites for trial stimulation either intraoperatively or postoperatively for up to a maximum of 30 days. The St. Jude Medical Neuromodulation Division neurostimulation systems are indicated for spinal cord stimulation (SCS) in the treatment of chronic pain of the trunk and limbs, either as the sole mitigating agent, or as an adjunct to other modes of therapy used in a multidisciplinary approach. St. Jude Medical Neuromodulation Division percutaneous leads model number 3066, 3163, 3166, 3169, extension model numbers 3382, 3383, 3341, 3342, 3343, and receiver model number 3408, transmitter model number 3508, and antenna model numbers 1220 and 1230 are also indicated to stimulate electrically peripheral nerves to relieve severe intractable pain.
Device Story
MTS System delivers low-intensity electrical impulses to spinal cord or peripheral nerves to treat chronic pain; system includes battery-powered external stimulator, trial cables, and percutaneous leads. Leads feature platinum-iridium electrodes and contact bands with polyurethane or silicone rubber sheaths; placed via epidural needle, guide wire, and stylet. Stimulator programmed to deliver pulses via sixteen output polarities; communicates via RS232 port with Rapid Programmer. Used intraoperatively or postoperatively by clinicians; patient wears stimulator during trial period (max 30 days). Output provides targeted paresthesia to painful sites; helps clinicians evaluate patient response to stimulation before permanent implant. Modification replaces demand-type pacemaker contraindication with warning to verify lack of interference and avoid unipolar programming.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical evaluation included prospective clinical evidence, systematic literature review, and complaint data analysis. Evidence supports replacing the demand-type pacemaker contraindication with a warning and clinical mitigation instructions to reduce risk of SCS interference with cardiac devices.
Technological Characteristics
System consists of external battery-powered stimulator and percutaneous leads. Leads constructed of platinum-iridium electrodes and contact bands with polyurethane or silicone rubber insulation. Leads feature 4 cylindrical electrodes. Connectivity via RS232 port to Rapid Programmer. System delivers electrical pulses via sixteen output polarities.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with chronic pain of the trunk and limbs or severe intractable peripheral nerve pain. Used as sole therapy or adjunct in multidisciplinary approach. Trial stimulation limited to 30 days.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An implanted spinal cord stimulator for pain relief is a device that is used to stimulate electrically a patient's spinal cord to relieve severe intractable pain. The stimulator consists of an implanted receiver with electrodes that are placed on the patient's spinal cord and an external transmitter for transmitting the stimulating pulses across the patient's skin to the implanted receiver.

# Device Description
MTS™ System
The MTS™ System (also called the Multiprogram Trial Stimulator) is a multi-programmable device designed to deliver low intensity electrical impulses to nerve structures in the dorsal aspect of the
Page 12 of 30
{1}------------------------------------------------
spinal cord. The system consists of an external stimulator, one or two trial cables, and a single or multiple percutaneous trial lead.
The trial stimulator is a battery-powered device that can be worn by the patient and is intended to deliver targeted paresthesia to single or multiple painful stimulation either intraoperatively or post operatively for a maximum of 30 days. The device contains electronic circuitry that combines the function of a receiver and a transmitter and allows the stimulator to be easily programmed to deliver electrical pulses via sixteen output polarities through the trial cable to the implanted lead. The Trial Stimulator communicates via an RS232 port with the Rapid Programmer.
# Wide-Spaced Quattrode™ Trial and Permanent Leads
The wide-spaced Quattrode trial and permanent leads are for use in spinal cord stimulation and perioheral nerve stimulation. Each lead consists of a variety of platinum iridium electrodes on the distal end connected by individually insulated wires to platinum iridium contact bands on the proximal end. The insulated wires are covered by a biocompatible polyurethane or silicone rubber sheath. The lead assembly consists of 4 cylindrical electrodes spaced at precise intervals. These leads are designed for introduction into the epidural space using an epidural needle, a guide wire, the optional Introde-AK (Introde) lead introducer, and a stylet to aid in positioning. Also, the permanent wide-spaced Quattrode leads (model #s: 3161, 3163, 3166 and 3169) are designed to be placed directly on or adjacent to a peripheral nerve. The exception is found with the widespaced Quattrode trial leads (model #3066) in that they are used during a trial implantation period not to exceed 30 days.

### Technological Characteristics
Summary of Non-clinical Studies
{2}------------------------------------------------
Non-clinical data performed to support previous submissions would still be applicable and would support this submission as well. As an effort to evaluate the continued safety and effectiveness of the medical devices mentioned in this submission, a risk evaluation was conducted. Identified risks were mitigated by replacing the contraindication for demand-type pacemakers with a warning statement instructing clinicians to verify that there is no interference between the implantable devices intraoperatively and to avoid a unipolar programming mode.
# Summary of Clinical Studies
A clinical evaluation was performed on the MTS™ System which includes associated accessory devices such as leads. This evaluation provides evidence to support the replacement of the contraindication for demand-type cardiac pacemakers with a warning that provides the clinician with mitigators to reduce the risk of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) interference with cardiac device functionality in patients with concomitant systems. The evidence to support this change includes prospective clinical evidence, a systematic literature review, and complaint data analysis.
## Conclusion
As a result of the non-clinical and clinical data demonstrated that the MTS™ System and the Wide-Spaced Quattrode™ Leads are as safe, effective and perform as well as the legally marketed devices identified in this 510(k) summary.
