The Renova-DT™ Cortical Stimulation System* is designed to treat major depressive disorder. The Renova-DT System delivers targeted stimulation to the prefrontal cortex, the portion of the brain’s surface associated with behavior and emotion.

The Renova-DT System consists of an implanted pulse generator (IPG), cortical stimulation lead and a programming system.

• Implantable pulse generator (IPG) - an electrical stimulator that is implanted in the pectoral (upper chest) area.
  
• Cortical stimulation lead - an electrode connected to the IPG, which is used to deliver stimulation to the cortex. The electrode is placed over the dura, a protective membrane that covers the brain's surface.
  
• Programming system - a handheld computer, which allows communication with the implanted IPG device. This system allows the clinician to change stimulation parameters and to turn the device on and off.

*Caution: Investigational device. Limited by Federal (or U.S.) law to investigational use.
