with Complete Capture Management™

Consulta CRT-D with Complete Capture Management

The Right Therapy at the Right Time

The first and only completely automatic™ wireless CRT-D to combine industry-leading pacing and ICD exclusives.

Completely Automatic™

Automaticity with Complete Capture Management

  • Ensures pacing capture in all heart chambers (ACM, RVCM, LVCM)1
  • Automatically monitors and adjusts outputs to ensure delivery of CRT (cardiac resynchronization therapy)
  • Provides a daily complete device check—automatically:
    • Lead impedance
    • Battery status
    • All-chamber threshold evaluation
    • Sensing amplitudes
  • Eliminates need for manual threshold checks, freeing time for clinicians and patients
  • Therapies automatically adapt to changing patient needs

Timely, Efficient Remote Follow-Up

The same in-depth device information as an office visit

  • Identify and assess problems sooner with complete remote follow-up via the CareLink® Network
  • Receive physician-selected critical data automatically and wirelessly, without patient intervention, through CareAlert® Notifications

Flexibility Means Risk Reduction

Programmable options provide noninvasive solutions for some complex cases

  • Programmable RV Sensing potentially resolves T-wave oversensing and other sensing issues that may lead to inappropriate shocks
  • Programmable SVC Coil avoids surgical intervention and enhances safety for patients

 

Proven Solutions

Successful disease management options only from Medtronic

  • Wireless—Provides advantages in safety and efficiency with Conexus® Wireless Telemetry
  • OptiVol®—Monitors fluid status in patients with heart failure for timely clinical intervention
  • AT/AF Management—Offers unprecedented diagnostics and therapies including Cardiac Compass® trends, ATP, Conducted AF Response, and dual channel EGM
  • Ensures CRT with Left Ventricular Capture Management and LV pacing output up to 8 V
  • Superior Battery Technology—Ensures short, consistent charge times for the life of the device

Medtronic Pain Free™ Solutions—Proven Strategies to Reduce Shocks

Shocks save lives. Reducing unnecessary shocks improves them.

  • Only Medtronic ICDs are proven to eliminate three out of four shocks, thus improving patient quality of life3

  • ATP During Charging provides patients the double protection of receiving painless ATP, yet allows no delay to shock if needed1
