Recharge-free neurostimulator for bladder and bowel control
The InterStim™ II system is a recharge-free, long-term therapy that lets patients get full-body* MRI scans.
Once implanted, the Interstim™ II system stimulates the sacral nerve, which is believed to normalize neural signals between the bladder and brain and the bowel and the brain. 12
The recharge-free InterStim™ neurostimulator streamlines the implant procedure with a design that eliminates the need for the lead extension and uses fewer set screws.
See the Interstim™ II System’s Five Year Data
- Connects directly to the lead, eliminating need for an extension
- Accommodates three lead sizes: 28 cm, 33 cm, and 41 cm
- Compatible with a lead insertion indicator in the lead
- Integrates strain relief in the header
- Incorporates radiopaque identification of manufacturer and model number
- Allows 1-screw implantation
- Allows full-body MRI scans for patients who need them*
*Under certain conditions. See approved labeling for details. Patients with InterStim™ SureScan™ MRI leads only.
