Abstract
An example of an apparatus for percutaneously delivering neurostimulation energy to a patient and sensing from the patient using a test device placed externally to the patient is provided. The apparatus may include a stimulation lead, a sensing reference electrode, a sensing wire, and a connection system. The stimulation lead may be configured to be percutaneously introduced into the patient to place the one or more electrodes in the patient. The sensing reference electrode may be configured to be placed in the patient. The sensing wire may be connected to the sensing reference electrode and configured to be percutaneously introduced into the patient to place the sensing reference electrode in the patient. The connection system may be configured to mate the lead connector and the wire connector and to provide electrical connections between the lead connector and the test device and between the wire connector and the test device.
