  1. Preparation: Ensure the skin surface is clean and dry before application. Follow healthcare provider instructions for managing the SCS trial lead exit site.
  2. Application: In the first method, anchor the lead directly onto the skin by tucking it into the inlet. In the second method, feed the lead through the small inlet and glide the StimFix down until it anchors securely on the skin. Confirm lead placement with fluoroscopy, and then secure the remaining lead within the anchoring clip.
  3. At-Home Care: Inspect the StimFix daily to ensure it remains secure. If the device becomes loose or after 7 days of use, contact your healthcare provider for further instructions.
