Overview
AI-generated summary, 18 Sep 2026
The Unilith Pulse Generator VVI #7542 is an implantable pacemaker pulse-generator designed to deliver ventricular demand pacing. It regulates heart rhythm by providing electrical impulses to the heart muscle when spontaneous contractions fall below a preset rate, ensuring consistent cardiac output in patients with bradycardia or conduction disorders.
This device is intended for surgical implantation and is classified as a Class III medical device under FDA regulations. Supplied as a sterile, single-use component, it requires proper handling and storage to maintain integrity before and after implantation. The Unilith Pulse Generator VVI #7542 is authorized under FDA 510(k) clearance (K830401) and adheres to regulatory standards outlined in 21 CFR 870.3610 for implantable pacemaker pulse-generators.

Questions
AI-generated answers, 18 Sep 2026
What is the primary purpose of the Unilith Pulse Generator VVI #7542 and how does it function in the body?
The Unilith Pulse Generator VVI #7542 is designed as an implantable pacemaker to manage bradycardia or conduction disorders by delivering ventricular demand pacing. It monitors the heart’s natural rhythm and provides electrical impulses to the heart muscle only when the spontaneous heartbeat falls below a preset rate, ensuring consistent cardiac output.
Is this device intended for reuse, or is it meant to be used only once after implantation?
The Unilith Pulse Generator VVI #7542 is supplied as a sterile, single-use component. While it is intended for surgical implantation, it is not designed for reuse, and proper handling and storage are required to maintain its integrity before and after use.
What storage conditions should be followed to ensure the device remains effective before implantation?
Since the Unilith Pulse Generator VVI #7542 is sterile and single-use, it must be stored in a way that preserves its sterility and structural integrity. The manufacturer’s guidelines (not detailed here) should be followed, but generally, this includes keeping it in its original packaging, away from extreme temperatures, moisture, and physical damage until ready for use.
What regulatory pathway was followed for FDA clearance of this device, and how does that affect its use?
The Unilith Pulse Generator VVI #7542 received FDA clearance through a 510(k) submission (K830401), classified as substantially equivalent to a predicate device under 21 CFR 870.3610. This means it was reviewed by the FDA’s Cardiovascular (CV) advisory committee and determined to meet safety and effectiveness standards for implantable pacemaker pulse-generators, ensuring it adheres to established regulatory requirements for use in clinical settings.
