Projected longevity

Projected longevity
Longevity estimates are based on accelerated battery discharge data and device modeling, EGM pre-storage off, with:
2.5 V atrial and RV pacing amplitude, 3 V LV pacing amplitude,
0.4 ms pulse widths, and 30 J delivered therapy energy (see Table 1-3)
3 V atrial and RV pacing amplitude, 4 V LV pacing amplitude,
0.4 ms pulse widths, and 30 J delivered therapy energy (see Table 1-4)
Considerations for using EGM pre-storage – When the EGM pre-storage feature is programmed off, the device starts to store EGM following the third tachyarrhythmia event and also provides up to 20 seconds of information before the onset of the tachyarrhythmia, including:
AA and VV intervals
Marker Channel
interval plot Flashback
When the EGM pre-storage feature is programmed on, the device also collects up to 20 seconds of EGM information before the onset of the arrhythmia.
In a patient who uniformly repeats the same onset mechanisms, the greatest clinical benefit of pre-onset EGM storage is achieved after a few episodes are captured. To maximize the effectiveness of the EGM pre-storage feature and optimize device longevity, consider these programming options:
Turn pre-storage on to capture possible changes in the onset mechanism following significant clinical adjustments, for example, device implant, medication changes, and surgical procedures.
Turn pre-storage off once you have successfully captured the information of interest.

The longevity of the device is dependent on several factors. The following factors result in decreased longevity:
an increase in pacing rate, pacing amplitude or pulse width; the ratio of paced to sensed events; or the charging frequency
a decrease in pacing impedance

Replacement indicators

Replacement indicators
Battery voltage and messages about replacement status appear on the programmer display and on printed reports. Table 1-5 lists the Elective Replacement Indicator (ERI) and the End of Life (EOL) conditions.
Table 1-5. Replacement indicators
Elective Replacement (ERI) 2.62 V
End of Life (EOL) 3 months after ERI
ERI date – The programmer displays the date when the battery reached ERI on the Quick Look and Battery and Lead Measurements screens.
Temporary voltage decrease – The battery voltage temporarily decreases following a high voltage charge. If a battery measurement is taken immediately after a high voltage charge, the ERI or EOL indicator may be displayed. However, this is a temporary status which will return to normal when the battery has recovered from the charge.
EOL indication – If the programmer indicates that the device is at EOL, replace the device immediately.
Post-ERI conditions – EOL device status is defined as three months following an ERI indication assuming the following post-ERI conditions: 0% DDD atrial pacing, 100% DDD RV and LV pacing at 70 ppm (min for LV; 500 pacing load; and six 30 J charges. EOL may be indicated before the end of three months if the device exceeds these conditions.

The most recent capacitor charge time appears on the programmer display and on printed reports and can be evaluated using the Charge/Dump test (see Table 1-6).

These charge times are typical when the capacitors are fully formed.

High voltage therapy energy

The stored energy of the device is derived from the peak capacitor voltage and is always greater than the energy delivered by the device. Table 1-7 compares the programmed energy levels delivered by the device to the energy levels stored in the capacitors before delivery.

New and enhanced features

The following features are new or changed from the 7277 InSync Marquis ICD.
Patient management
Heart Failure Management Report – The HF report provides
counter, audit, and long term trend information about clinical status and device operation. Topics include tachyarrhythmia episodes, heart rate, percent pacing, and patient activity.
Rate Histograms Report – Rate histograms for atrial rate, ventricular rate, and ventricular rate during AT/AF episodes are provided upon interrogation.
Ventricular Sensing Episodes – This diagnostic tool provides reports on extended periods of ventricular sensing to help the clinician assess continuity of CRT delivery.
Quick reference
New and enhanced features
29
Cardiac resynchronization therapy
CRT recovery options – Three optional CRT features help to
maintain CRT:
Ventricular Sense Response provides ventricular pacing in response to ventricular sensing to ensure that CRT pacing is delivered as programmed.
Conducted AF Response dynamically adjusts and smooths the pacing rate to maintain ventricular pacing during conducted AT/AF episodes. (Conducted AF Response does not provide therapy for atrial arrhythmias.)
Atrial Tracking Recovery temporarily shortens PVARP to restore atrial tracking and CRT delivery when atrial events fall in the refractory period following a sensed ventricular event.
InSync II Marquis 7289 Reference Manual

Chapter 1
New and enhanced features
Other features
Independently programmable pacing outputs – Pacing
outputs for RV and LV are independently programmable
True bipolar RV sensing – Both integrated and true bipolar RV sensing are available.
Programmable LV pacing vector – LV pacing can be delivered from LVtip to LVring when a bipolar LV lead is implanted.
LV lead evaluation tools – The InSync II Marquis device provides new tools for specific monitoring of the left ventricular lead:
LV lead impedance trend
Patient Alert for LV lead impedance out of range
Added EGM sources – RVring EGM sources are available in addition to LVtip to LVring (for bipolar LV leads) and LVtip to SVC.
