    IT WAS REPORTED THAT THE PT IS HAVING MORE SEIZURES DUE TO LOW THE BATTERY AND WANTED TO GET THE BATTERY REPLACEMENT URGENTLY. A BATTERY LIFE CALCULATION (BLC) WAS PERFORMED WITH RESULTS INDICATING THAT THE DEVICE WAS LIKELY AT END OF SERVICE (EOS) AND THEREFORE THE INCREASED SEIZURES WERE DUE TO THE DEVICE NO LONGER SUPPLYING STIMULATION.
