Precautions about the Pacemaker
W A R N I N G
z Minute ventilation rate-adaptive implantable pacemakers can occasionally
interact with the bedside monitor including this unit and diagnostic
equipment, causing the pacemakers to pace at their maximum
programmed rate. The cardiac monitoring and diagnostic equipment may
possibly send wrong information.
If such event occurs, please disconnect the cardiac monitoring and
diagnostic equipment, or follow the procedures described in the operation
manual of the pacemaker.
Reference “Minute Ventilation Rate-Adaptive Pacemakers”
FDA alerts health professionals that minute ventilation rate-adaptive
implantable pacemakers can occasionally interact with certain cardiac
monitoring and diagnostic equipment, causing pacemakers to pace at their
maximum programmed rate.
[October 14, 1998 (Letter: www.fda.gov/cdrh/safety.html) – FDA]
z Rate meters may continue to count the pacemaker rate during
occurrences of cardiac arrest or some arrhythmias. Do not rely entirely
upon rate meter alarms. Keep pacemaker patients under close
surveillance. See this manual for disclosure of the pacemaker pulse
rejection capability of this equipment.
