BIOTRONIK Lumax DR ICD Series, Technical Manual, Page: 10 / 176

2 Lumax Technical Manual
•
Lumax DR - provides dual chamber rate adaptive
bradycardia pacing support. The ICD uses atrial and
ventricular sensing/pacing leads to provide enhanced
atrial and ventricular tachyarrhythmia discrimination
through BIOTRONIK’s SMART Detection
TM
algorithm.
•
Lumax DR-T - In addition to the functionality found with
the DR model it also has the added functionality of
BIOTRONIK’s Home Monitoring system. The Home
Monitoring System enables automatic exchange of
information about a patient’s cardiac status from the
implant to the physician remotely.
•
Lumax VR - provides single chamber rate adaptive
bradycardia pacing support as well as tachyarrhythmia
detection and therapy.
•
Lumax VR-T - In addition to the functionality found with
standard VR model it also has the added functionality of
BIOTRONIK’s Home Monitoring system. The Home
Monitoring System enables automatic exchange of
information about a patient’s cardiac status from the
implant to the physician remotely.
The 300/500 and 340/540 designation for each of the above-
described models denote the maximum programmable shock
energy of 30 joules and 40 joules, respectively.
The Lumax 500/540 models also feature a third programmable
shock path for delivery of defibrillation/cardioversion shocks. The
shock path is programmable between the different shock coils
(SVC/RV) and/or the device housing. Section 2.8.3.6 provides
further details on the available shock configurations.
Additionally, the Lumax 500/540 models feature Automatic
Threshold Measurement (ATM) of ventricular pacing thresholds.
This feature is separately programmable for the right (RV) and left
(LV) ventricle. Section 2.3 provides further details.
