DBS Pocket Adaptor, Model 64001 and Model 64002. The Medtronic Models 64001 (1x4) and 64002 (2x4) Pocket Adaptors can be used as a part of a neurostimulation system for deep brain stimulation. The pocket adaptor is intended to be implanted with the new replacement neurostimulator in the same pocket used for the explanted neurostimulator. Implanting in the same neurostimulator pocket allows for a single-incision procedure.
