Abstract
A method and apparatus for administering percutaneous electrical therapy to a recipient. The apparatus can include an electrical coupler having a coupling member configured to be removably positioned at least proximate to a percutaneous probe. The coupling member can be coupleable to a source of therapeutic electrical signals via a therapeutic signal transmission link to transmit the therapeutic electrical signals to the recipient. The apparatus can further include a status signal transmission link at least proximate to the therapeutic signal transmission link and coupleable to a status signal emitter. The status signal transmission link can be at least tamper-resistant and/or tamper-evident, and can be configured to transmit a status signal having a first characteristic value when the status signal transmission link is in a first condition and a second characteristic value when the status signal transmission link has been altered from a first condition to a second condition.
