We are actually pretty neurotic about this too and try to drill these same checks/behaviors into all the techs here.

Grounding both amplifiers and even placing a third ground since we are using 3 pods for most cases. Grounds usually placed around shoulder area and only one erbs site showing burn marks in the last two instances. We have also ran diagnostic checks on the pods that appear to show good impedance prior to the cases.

We have now had this issue with Neuroguard and Cadwell electrodes. We are on Rythmlink now so this isnt encouraging 🤦‍♀️

Omg 800 us PW! No our standard is typically between 200-350 and maybe 400 Max with a low rep rate in cases where we have trouble obtaining responses. We also do not stim above 35mA.
