Overview
AI-generated summary, 18 Sep 2026
The Model F Unipolar Endocardial Lead is a permanent pacemaker electrode designed for implantation within the heart to deliver electrical stimulation. It facilitates cardiac pacing by transmitting electrical impulses to the endocardium, ensuring proper heart rhythm regulation in patients with bradycardia or conduction disorders.
This device is supplied sterile and intended for single-use implantation in cardiac electrophysiology procedures. It is classified under product code DTB and regulated under FDA 510(k) clearance (K832255), with a decision date of August 12, 1983. The lead adheres to Class III regulatory standards for permanent pacemaker electrodes and is intended for use in cardiovascular settings.

Questions
AI-generated answers, 18 Sep 2026
Is this lead designed for reuse in multiple patients, or is it intended for single-use only?
This Model F Unipolar Endocardial Lead is explicitly supplied sterile and intended for single-use implantation in cardiac electrophysiology procedures. It is not designed for reuse across patients, aligning with standard practices for permanent pacemaker electrodes to ensure patient safety and sterility.
What types of heart conditions is this lead typically used to address, and how does it work?
This lead is designed for patients with bradycardia or conduction disorders, delivering electrical stimulation to the endocardium to regulate heart rhythm. It functions as a permanent pacemaker electrode, transmitting impulses directly to the heart tissue to maintain proper pacing when the natural conduction system is impaired.
How is this lead supplied, and what should clinicians verify before use?
The lead is supplied sterile and comes pre-packaged for single-use procedures. Clinicians should verify the sterility seal is intact and confirm compatibility with their pacemaker system before implantation, as it is intended for use in cardiovascular settings only.
What regulatory pathway does this device follow, and how does that affect its use?
This lead follows the FDA 510(k) clearance pathway under product code DTB, classified as a Class III device for permanent pacemaker electrodes. The clearance (K832255) was granted in 1983 under the substantially equivalent determination, meaning it meets FDA standards for safety and effectiveness as a unipolar endocardial lead for cardiac pacing.
Are there specific storage requirements for this lead before implantation?
While the data does not specify storage conditions, as a sterile, single-use device, it should be stored in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Clinicians should follow manufacturer guidelines (available from Cook Pacemaker Corp.) to preserve sterility until use.
