摘要：
An implantable pulse generator (IPG) is disclosed herein. The IPG includes two or more body-mounted electrodes that can be independently programmed to provide stimulation at the location of implantation. The IPG also includes connectors for connecting one or more leads configured with electrode arrays for providing stimulation remote from the IPG. The IPG can be implanted at one location in a patient's body where stimulation is to be delivered and the one or more remote leads can be implanted in additional locations. The disclosed IPG with both body-mounted and remote electrodes reduces the charging complexity of having two microstimulators implanted. The remote lead(s) may be either permanently attached to the IPG or may be removeably attached.
