What we offer your ASC
A safe, proven, and effective therapy that consists of an implantable system that gently stimulates the sacral nerves to help restore* normal bladder and bowel function.1-7
An InterStim™ implant consists of an InterStim SureScan™ MRI lead and an InterStim™ implantable neurostimulator (INS). The InterStim SureScan™ MRI lead is placed parallel to the sacral nerve.
* Defined as a 50% or greater reduction in troublesome bladder or bowel symptoms.
InterStim™ II system
Recharge-free neurostimulator for bladder and bowel control
The InterStim™ II system is the only recharge-free, long-term therapy that lets you get full-body† MRI scans.
† Under certain conditions; see approved labeling for details. Patients with InterStim™ SureScan™ MRI leads only.

TYRXTM neuro absorbable antibacterial envelope
The TYRX™ neuro absorbable antibacterial envelope is designed to provide device stabilization when implanted. The envelope also contains the antimicrobial agents rifampin and minocycline, which have been shown to reduce infection in an in vivo model of bacterial challenge following surgical implantation.‡

The most common adverse events experienced during clinical studies include pain at implant sites, new pain, lead migration, infection, technical or device problems, adverse change in bowel or voiding function, and undesirable stimulation or sensations. Any of these may require additional surgery or cause return of symptoms.
Medical necessity will dictate site of service for each individual patient. Physicians should confirm inpatient or outpatient admission criteria before selecting site of service.
