Abstract
The present disclosure provides a modular neurostimulator system. The system includes a stage one implant that can be externally powered and controlled. The stage one implant is made of one or more leads as well as a passive receiver and an external controlling and powering device. The receiver and the external device can be utilized either as a long-term trial system, or as a permanent system. Since the receiver and the external device can have limited costs and features, they are suited for a long-term trial without risk of infection and excessive upfront cost. The system may also include a stage two implant that includes an implantable power supply and/or control elements connectable to one or more previously implanted stage one implants. A method of treatment for limb peripheral nerves using such a modular system is also disclosed.
