True Bipolar Sensing with Two Defibrillation Coils

  • May reduce ventricular oversensing1
  • More efficient re-detection of VF2

Energy Efficiency

  • Dual defibrillation coil connections provide:
    • wider energy vectors
    • electrical redundancy
    • greater energy efficiency3
  • Highly efficient tantalum coils evenly disperse current

Easy Introduction, Navigation and Handling

  • Small 9 Fr introducer size (without guide wire)
  • Isodiametric lead body with Isoglide™ polyurethane overlay

Reliability

  • Patented compression lumens designed to resist crush
  • Built on the solid experience and reliability of over 80,000 Sprint leads sold worldwide
