Overview
AI-generated summary, 18 Sep 2026
This device is an Implantable Pacemaker Pulse-Generator, a Class III medical device designed to provide electrical stimulation to the heart. It generates programmable, unipolar pulses to regulate cardiac rhythm in patients with intermittent or continuous conduction disorders, including bradycardia or heart block. The pulse generator includes programmable features such as triggered, inhibited, and asynchronous pacing modes to adapt to varying clinical needs.
The device is intended for implantable use within the body and is single-use after implantation. It is non-sterile prior to surgical implantation, requiring sterile preparation by a healthcare professional. Authorized under FDA 510(k) clearance (K772238), it adheres to regulatory standards for cardiovascular devices, including Class III classification (DXY) under 21 CFR 870.3610. No MRI safety information or reusable specifications are provided in the data.

Questions
AI-generated answers, 18 Sep 2026
What clinical conditions is this pulse generator designed to address in patients?
This programmable, unipolar pulse generator is intended for patients experiencing intermittent or continuous conduction disorders, such as bradycardia or heart block, where the heart’s natural electrical signals are insufficient to maintain an adequate rhythm. It provides electrical stimulation to regulate cardiac rhythm through programmable modes like triggered, inhibited, or asynchronous pacing to adapt to varying clinical needs.
Is this device intended for reuse after implantation, or is it single-use?
This pulse generator is explicitly designed for single-use only after implantation. Once placed within the body, it is not intended to be removed or reused, aligning with standard practices for implantable cardiac devices.
How should the device be prepared for surgical implantation given its sterility status?
The pulse generator is non-sterile prior to implantation, meaning it must be sterilized by the healthcare professional performing the procedure. Sterilization is a critical step to ensure safety before the device is introduced into the patient’s body during surgery.
What types of pacing modes does this device support, and how does that benefit patients?
This device supports programmable pacing modes, including triggered, inhibited, and asynchronous pacing. These modes allow clinicians to tailor stimulation to the patient’s specific cardiac needs, improving adaptability for conditions like bradycardia or heart block where pacing requirements may vary over time.
What regulatory pathway was followed for this device’s approval, and what does that mean for its use?
The device was cleared through the FDA 510(k) pathway under the classification of Class III (DXY) for cardiovascular devices, adhering to 21 CFR 870.3610. This means it was deemed substantially equivalent to a predicate device and meets stringent regulatory standards for safety and effectiveness in managing cardiac rhythm disorders. The clearance does not imply MRI safety or reusable specifications.
