- Subject receives frequent (more than 2 days per week) treatment with drugs of the following types:
- antiplatelets
- anticoagulants
- chemotherapeutics
- non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID)
- Subject has skeletal deformities or damage at the proposed implantation site to an extent that impedes correct electrode placement.
- Subject is involved in therapies with other active implantable devices that deliver electrical energy above the clavicular area, such as implantable brain stimulation, external/transcranial brain stimulation, vagus nerve stimulator (VNS) and cochlear implant(s).

- Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT) \> 50 seconds
- thrombocyte count \< 50 or \>1000 x 109/L
- International Normalised Ratio (INR) ≥ 1.6
- Any other clinical or paraclinical finding that in the opinion of the Investigator would interfere with participation in the study or would confound interpretation of the study results.
