Automated Follow-Up Efficiencies

Medtronic Kappa 700 provides adaptive capabilities to automate up to 50% of follow-up activities, including ventricular threshold testing, atrial and ventricular sensing testing, and in-office exercise testing.^1,2

Pacemaker follow-up activities^1,3
*Only ventricular pacing thresholds automated.

• Quick Look™ feature summarizes significant clinical events since the last follow-up.

Additional tools for follow-up include:

• Key Parameter History™ diagnostic automatically records programming changes over time.
• The Fully Automated Self-Test (FAST™) diagnostic provides at home monitoring of pacing thresholds, lead impedance, and battery life. This is accomplished with the Remote Assistant™ hand-held cardiac monitor or transtelephonic monitoring.
