External Pacemakers
 
Model 5388 Dual Chamber Temporary Pacemaker

External Pacemakers

Medtronic external pacemakers are intended for use with a pacemaker lead system for temporary single or dual chamber pacing in a clinical environment.

Medtronic Single and Dual Chamber Temporary Pacemakers

5388 dual chamber temporary pacemaker

Detail - Model 5388 Dual Chamber Temporary Pacemaker

Model 5348

This single chamber temporary pacemaker is applicable when such pacing modes are indicated for therapeutic, prophylactic, or diagnostic purposes:

  • Rapid atrial pacing to manage atrial flutter 
  • Safety awareness ranges to alert clinician to areas of caution 
  • Sensitivity range (0.5 to 20 mV) 
  • Reversible battery polarity for quick battery changes 
  • Safe patient cable system for patient safety

Model 5388

The dual chamber model can be used where short-term demand (synchronous) or asynchronous pacing is indicated for therapeutic, prophylactic, or diagnostic purposes:

  • Just 3 dials provide simple and effective dual chamber temporary pacing
  • Changing the pacing rate automatically adjusts other dual chamber temporary pacing parameters
  • Additional therapy options are available
  • The device paces up to 200 ppm
  • Ventricular output to 25 mA for high stimulation thresholds
  • Rapid atrial pacing rate up to 800 ppm for managing atrial tachyarrhythmias

Temporary Transvenous Pacing Lead – Model 6416

This temporary transvenous lead system features an active fixation, bipolar lead and a soft-tipped, lubricated guide catheter. The system is designed for temporary intracardiac pacing and/or EGM recording. It is disposable for single patient use with an intended implant duration of 7 days or less.

Important Safety Information

Changes in a patient's disease and/or medications may alter the efficacy of a device's programmed parameters or related features.
