LBJI’s Dr. Sonevytsky Pioneering Advanced Pain Management with New Medtronic Battery

Lake Building & Joint Institute is proud to announce that Dr. Adrian Sonevytsky has successfully implanted the new Medtronic battery in a spinal cord stimulator, marking a groundbreaking achievement for pain management in Northwest Indiana. Dr. Sonevytsky is the first provider in the region to offer this innovative technology to patients suffering from chronic pain.

The newly approved Medtronic battery represents a significant leap forward in pain relief. Unlike previous versions, this advanced battery provides patients with superior, 24-hour pain control through a closed-loop system that automatically adjusts stimulation based on the patient’s individual needs and activity level. This eliminates the need for manual adjustments and ensures consistent pain relief throughout the day.

This new battery offers our patients a higher quality of life by providing them with the freedom and comfort they deserve.

Prior to this breakthrough, patients often experienced fluctuating pain levels and required frequent adjustments to their spinal cord stimulators. The new Medtronic battery addresses these challenges by offering real-time feedback and adaptive stimulation, resulting in improved pain management and overall patient satisfaction.

LBJI is committed to providing patients with the most advanced and effective pain relief options available. This latest achievement underscores the institute’s dedication to delivering exceptional care and driving innovation in the field of pain management.

Thanks to Michael Goldenstern from Medtronic, Dr. Sonevytsky, and Nurse Viola Lange! Congratulations!
