Pacing

ADAPTA with MVP
Pacing System

Intrinsic and Automatic

Pacing Redefined, The New Standard

The new standard of care in pacing is to reduce unnecessary right ventricular pacing to as close to zero as possible. Mounting evidence suggests that right ventricular pacing is associated with a variety of detrimental effects, including risk of heart failure hospitalization and atrial fibrillation.1

The Adapta pacing system combines physiologic pacing with automaticity.

MVP™—Managed Ventricular Pacing

Intrinsic conduction when you have it, the safety of pacing when you need it.

  • Promotes intrinsic conduction
  • Reduces unnecessary right ventricular pacing by 99%*2
  • Provides AAI(R) pacing with ventricular monitoring plus the safety of DDD(R) backup pacing when needed

Completely Automatic—Simple to Use

Atrial Capture Management and Ventricular Capture Management (ACM and VCM)

  • Provide complete long-term threshold management automatically
  • Ensure pacing outputs remain at safe levels3
  • Adapt programmed outputs to maximize longevity

TherapyGuide

  • Simplifies and tailors programming
  • Provides recommended device settings based on physician-selected patient conditions

Quick Look™ II

  • Simplifies clinic follow-up with all key information on one screen
  • Provides concise overview of patient, device, and lead status

Cardiac Compass Trends

Concise information to:

  • Identify atrial arrhythmias
  • Make key therapy decisions (e.g., titrating medications)
  • Monitor results of therapy changes

Therapeutic Options for AT/AF

Pacing therapies that may help manage tachyarrhythmias and may alleviate symptoms:

  • Atrial Preference Pacing (APP)
  • Post Mode Switch Overdrive Pacing (PMOP)
  • Conducted AF Response
