9. Lead Connection
Evia CRT-Ps have been designed and are recommended for use with bipolar or unipolar leads having
an IS-1 connector. The IS-1 configured leads may be placed in one or both chambers of the heart,
depending upon model selected.
WARNING
Unipolar/Bipolar
– All Evia models can be used with either unipolar
or bipolar IS-1 leads.
If the pacing or sensing function is to be programmed to
bipolar
,
it must be verified that
bipolar leads
have been implanted in that
chamber. If either of the leads is
unipolar
,
unipolar
sensing and
pacing functions must be programmed in that chamber. Failure to
program the appropriate lead configuration could result in entrance
and/or exit block.
NOTE:
Connecting systems with a 3.2 mm configuration that do not expressly claim to agree with the IS-1
dimensions generally have to be regarded as incompatible with IS-1 connectors and can only be
used with BIOTRONIK products together with an appropriate adapter. For questions regarding lead-
generator compatibility, consult your BIOTRONIK representative.
In case of pulse generator replacement, make sure that the existing lead connector and lead are
not damaged.
CAUTION
Lead/pulse Generator Compatibility
– Because of the numerous
available 3.2-mm configurations (e.g., the IS-1 and VS-1 standards),
lead/pulse generator compatibility should be confirmed with the pulse
generator and/or lead manufacturer prior to the implantation of a
pacing system.
IS-1, wherever stated in this manual, refers to the international
standard, whereby leads and generators from different manufacturers
are assured a basic fit. [Reference ISO 5841-3:1992(E)].
BIOTRONIK recommends the use of bipolar pacing leads with new implants so that all of the
programmable parameters of Evia CRT-Ps are available for use. Evia CRT-Ps have a self-sealing
header. Refer to the following steps when connecting a lead(s) to the pulse generator.
First, confirm that the setscrew(s) is not protruding into the connector receptacle. To retract a
setscrew, insert the enclosed torque wrench through the perforation in the self-sealing plug at an angle
perpendicular to the lead connector until it is firmly placed in the setscrew.
