Abstract: A lead fixation accessory configured to be positioned over a skull hole and to transition between an opened state and a closed state during a lead implant procedure protects against lead migration by providing a mechanism for securing the lead in place at the skull hole while a stylet is removed from the lead. The lead fixation accessory remains in place after the implant procedure to provide chronic lead stability. A lead stabilization tool configured to access and grip a lead through a slotted cannula during the lead implant procedure also protects against lead migration by providing a mechanism for securing the lead in place at a point where the lead exits the skull hole while the slotted cannula is removed from the skull hole and peeled away from the lead.

Abstract: Described herein are methods and systems for delivering a burst of stimulation pulses or pulse segments sequentially to a plurality of stimulation pathways. The stimulation pulses may be generated by a stimulation device, which may comprise an implantable neurostimulator. The stimulation pathways may comprise one or more electrodes electrically connected to the stimulation device. In some variations, the stimulation pathway may comprise a monopolar stimulation pathway and/or a bipolar stimulation pathway.
