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 Sensia pacing system combines physiologic pacing with automaticity.

Search AV™+ Promotes Intrinsic Conduction

  • Search AV+ (SAV+) automatically and continuously searches for natural intrinsic conduction
  • SAV+ reduces unnecessary right ventricular pacing to less than 20%*2

Risk of Heart Failure Hospitalization1 (HFH)
Rish of Heart Failure Hospitalization

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
  • Adapts programmed outputs to actively manage battery current drain

TherapyGuide

  • Simplifies and tailors programming
  • Provides suggested 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
