Overview
AI-generated summary, 18 Sep 2026
The Silicone Rubber Isolation Sleeve 350-01 is a protective barrier designed to isolate and shield implantable pacemaker pulse generators. Constructed from silicone rubber, it provides a sterile, non-reactive enclosure to prevent contamination and mechanical damage to the device during handling or implantation procedures.
This sleeve is intended for single-use applications in cardiovascular settings, where it is applied over the pulse generator prior to surgical implantation. Supplied sterile and packaged individually, it adheres to FDA 510(k) clearance under the classification of Class III medical devices (DXY). Compliance with regulatory standards ensures compatibility with MRI-safe environments when used as directed.

Questions
AI-generated answers, 18 Sep 2026
What is the primary purpose of the Silicone Rubber Isolation Sleeve 350-01 during pacemaker implantation procedures?
The Silicone Rubber Isolation Sleeve 350-01 is designed as a protective barrier to shield implantable pacemaker pulse generators from contamination and mechanical damage during handling or surgical implantation. It creates a sterile, non-reactive enclosure around the device to ensure its integrity before and during placement.
Is the sleeve reusable, or is it intended for single-use only?
The sleeve is explicitly intended for single-use applications. This design ensures sterility and prevents cross-contamination between patients, which is critical in cardiovascular surgical settings where infection control is paramount.
How is the sleeve supplied, and what should clinicians expect when receiving a shipment?
The sleeve is supplied sterile and packaged individually. Clinicians can expect each unit to be pre-sterilized and ready for immediate use, eliminating the need for additional sterilization steps before application on the pulse generator.
Can this sleeve be used with any implantable pacemaker pulse generator, or are there specific compatibility considerations?
While the sleeve is designed to be compatible with implantable pacemaker pulse generators in general, its use is specifically authorized under FDA 510(k) clearance for this purpose. Clinicians should verify compatibility with their specific device model, particularly if the pulse generator has unique dimensions or materials that could affect the sleeve’s fit or function.
Does the sleeve meet any specific regulatory standards related to MRI safety?
Yes, the sleeve is manufactured to comply with regulatory standards that ensure compatibility with MRI-safe environments when used as directed. This means it is designed to minimize interference or risks during MRI procedures, provided the sleeve itself is applied correctly and the pulse generator adheres to MRI-safe guidelines.
