In an Axonics system, the implantable pulse generator is the component that stores and uses the patient’s stimulation settings. It contains the rechargeable battery and the electronics that hold parameters like amplitude, pulse width, rate, and the on/off schedule, then delivers pulses through the implanted leads to the targeted nerves. The external programmer’s job is to set and adjust those parameters and retrieve data, but it does not permanently store the therapy for daily use. The leads are just the conductive paths for delivering the pulses and do not retain programming data.
