Questions
AI-generated answers, 18 Sep 2026
Are these pacing leads designed for reuse or single-use, and how should they be handled after opening?
These Passive Plus Pacing Leads are supplied as sterile, single-use devices. They are intended for one-time use only and should not be reused or reprocessed. After opening, any unused portion must be discarded according to medical device disposal protocols to maintain sterility and patient safety.
What specific models or part numbers are available for these titanium nitride-coated pacing leads?
The Passive Plus Pacing Leads come in multiple model references, including 3002618605, 3008377825, 1028232, 3003574398, and others like 3008988055, 2183787, and 2182208. These variations ensure compatibility with various pacemaker systems, so verifying the correct model for your specific device is important.
How does the titanium nitride coating benefit patients who require long-term cardiac pacing?
The titanium nitride coating on these leads enhances biocompatibility, reducing the risk of adverse tissue reactions over time. This is particularly important for patients requiring long-term implantation, as it helps minimize complications like fibrosis or inflammation around the lead.
What type of regulatory clearance does this device have, and how does that affect its use?
These leads hold FDA 510(k) clearance under the classification of Permanent Pacemaker Electrode (DTB), regulated under 21 CFR 870.3680. This clearance indicates they meet U.S. regulatory standards for safety and effectiveness as intended for permanent transvenous cardiac pacing, ensuring they can be legally used in clinical settings following standard medical device protocols.
Are these leads compatible with all pacemaker systems, or should I confirm compatibility before ordering?
While the Passive Plus Pacing Leads are designed to work with various pacemaker systems, compatibility can vary depending on the specific model and manufacturer. It’s always best practice to verify the exact model number (e.g., 3002618605) against your pacemaker’s documentation to ensure proper function and safety before use.
