Overview

AI-generated summary, 18 Sep 2026

Written by a language model from registry data. Not verified by deviCERTS or the manufacturer. The registry data above is the record.

The Sonacolor 6100 is an implantable pacemaker pulse-generator, designed to regulate cardiac rhythm by delivering electrical impulses to the heart. It falls under the classification of an implantable cardiac device, intended for patients requiring artificial pacing to manage bradycardia or other conduction disorders.

This device is supplied as a single-use implantable unit, regulated under FDA 510(k) clearance (K801647) and classified as a Class III medical device under regulation 870.3610. It is intended for sterile surgical implantation and must be handled in accordance with aseptic techniques. The device’s compatibility with MRI environments is not specified in the available data.

Questions

AI-generated answers, 18 Sep 2026

Written by a language model from registry data. Not verified by deviCERTS or the manufacturer. The registry data above is the record.

  • What is the primary purpose of the Sonacolor 6100 pacemaker, and who would benefit from using it?

    The Sonacolor 6100 is an implantable pacemaker pulse-generator designed to regulate cardiac rhythm by delivering electrical impulses to the heart. It is intended for patients with bradycardia or conduction disorders who require artificial pacing to maintain a stable heart rate. This device is specifically for those whose natural cardiac electrical system is insufficient to sustain proper heart function.

  • Is the Sonacolor 6100 meant for single-use or can it be reused after implantation?

    The Sonacolor 6100 is supplied as a single-use implantable unit. Once implanted, it is intended to remain in place as a permanent solution for the patient’s pacing needs. Reuse is not recommended or supported by the manufacturer’s specifications.

  • How should the Sonacolor 6100 be handled during surgical implantation to ensure sterility?

    The Sonacolor 6100 is intended for sterile surgical implantation and must be handled using aseptic techniques. This means the device should be opened and used in a controlled, sterile environment to prevent contamination, as it is not designed for non-sterile procedures.

  • What regulatory pathway was followed for the approval of the Sonacolor 6100, and what classification does it hold?

    The Sonacolor 6100 was cleared through the FDA’s 510(k) pathway under the classification of a Class III medical device (regulation number 870.3610). It was determined to be substantially equivalent to a predicate device, and the clearance number assigned is K801647. This classification reflects its role as an implantable cardiac device requiring rigorous regulatory oversight.

  • Are there different models or sizes available for the Sonacolor 6100, and if so, how would a clinician determine the appropriate one for a patient?

    The provided data does not specify distinct models or sizes for the Sonacolor 6100, but it is listed under multiple registration numbers, which may correspond to variations or batches. Clinicians would typically rely on manufacturer guidelines, patient-specific measurements, and clinical assessment to determine compatibility and proper use, though specific sizing details are not outlined in the available information.
