Questions
AI-generated answers, 18 Sep 2026
What is the primary purpose of the Microthin-DI Bipolar Pulse Generator, and how does its bipolar design benefit patients?
The Microthin-DI Bipolar Pulse Generator is designed to deliver precise electrical impulses for cardiac pacing, helping patients with bradycardia or conduction disorders maintain a normal heart rhythm. Its bipolar technology ensures targeted stimulation of the heart, reducing the risk of unintended muscle stimulation and improving pacing accuracy compared to unipolar systems.
Is this device intended for reuse, or is it meant to be implanted as a single-use device?
The Microthin-DI Bipolar Pulse Generator is supplied in sterile packaging, which indicates it is intended for single-use implantation only. Reuse is not recommended or supported by the manufacturer’s specifications.
How was this device’s regulatory pathway determined, and what does the product code (DXY) signify?
The device was cleared via a Traditional 510(k) pathway in 1980 (K802409) and is classified as a Class 3 Cardiovascular device under FDA regulations. The product code DXY categorizes it as an *Implantable Pacemaker Pulse-Generator*, reflecting its intended use in treating bradycardia or conduction disorders.
What storage or handling precautions should be taken with this device before implantation?
Since the Microthin-DI Bipolar Pulse Generator is supplied in sterile packaging, it must be stored according to manufacturer guidelines to preserve sterility—typically in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Always follow the included instructions for proper handling to ensure device integrity before use.
