10.5.3 Follow-up History
The Evia CRT-P can store up to 10 follow-ups. See Figure 66 . The first follow-up performed is stored
and will not be overwritten to serve as a baseline for future follow-up comparisons. Evia CRT-P stores
one follow-up per day. If more than one follow-up is performed, the device will retain the most recent
data for that day. After 10 follow-ups, the device will overwrite data starting with the second follow-up
and continue to overwrite the oldest data.
The Follow History screen is accessed via the main Follow-up screen. The last follow-up icon is in the
upper right-hand corner of the follow-up screen.

10.6 Atrial Non-Invasive Programmed Stimulation (NIPS)
WARNING
NIPS – Life threatening ventricular arrhythmias can be induced by
stimulation in the atrium. Ensure that an external cardiac defibrillator
is easily accessible. Only physicians trained and experienced in
tachycardia induction and reversion protocols should use non-invasive
programmed stimulation (NIPS).
10.6.1 Description
The implanted pulse generator/lead system may be used in conjunction with the programmer to
generate externally controlled pacing pulses. Burst Stimulation or Programmed Stimulation may be
selected with up to four extra stimuli at pacing rates to 800 ppm.
