  • Page 12 ICD and CRT-D systems. The lead systems are implanted using either transvenous or transthoracic techniques. The St. Jude Medical Merlin™ Patient Care System (PCS) with software model 3330 version 24.0.1 (or greater), a Merlin™ Antenna (for devices with RF communication), and a telemetry wand constitute the external portion of the ICD and CRT-D systems.

  • Page 13: Indications And Usage

    LLLL is equivalent to IS4-LLLL. SJ4 and IS4 connectors comply with ISO 27186:2010(E). Indications and Usage St. Jude Medical™ ICDs and CRT-Ds are intended to provide ventricular antitachycardia pacing and ventricular defibrillation for automated treatment of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. AF Suppression™ pacing is indicated for suppression of paroxysmal or persistent atrial fibrillation in patients with the above ICD indication and sinus node dysfunction.

    MR Conditional system and according to instructions in the MRI Procedure Information document for the St. Jude Medical™ MR Conditional system. Contraindications Contraindications for use of the pulse generator system include ventricular tachyarrhythmias resulting from transient or correctable factors such as drug toxicity, electrolyte imbalance, or acute myocardial infarction.
  • Page 15 Modifying the device. This device has been tested for compliance to FCC regulations. Changes or modifications of any kind not expressly approved by St. Jude Medical Inc. could void the user’s authority to operate this device.

  • Page 17: Sterilization, Storage And Handling

    If package is damaged. Do not use the device or accessories if the packaging is wet, punctured, opened or damaged because the integrity of the sterile packaging may be compromised. Return the device to St. Jude Medical. Device storage. Store the device in a clean area, away from magnets, kits containing magnets, and sources of electromagnetic interference (page 20) to avoid device damage.

    (CPR) are present during post-implant device testing should the patient require external rescue. Be aware that the changes in the patient's condition, drug regimen, and other factors may change the defibrillation threshold (DFT), which may result in nonconversion of the arrhythmia. Successful conversion of ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia during arrhythmia conversion testing is no assurance that conversion will occur post-operatively.

  • Page 19: Pulse Generator Explant And Disposal

    Interrogate the device and turn all therapies off before explanting, cleaning or shipping the device to prevent unwanted shocks. Return all explanted pulse generators and leads to St. Jude Medical. Never incinerate the device because of the potential for explosion. Explant the device before cremation.
  • Page 20 groundplate as far away from the pulse generator and leads as possible. External defibrillation. External defibrillation may damage the pulse generator or may result in temporary and/or permanent myocardial damage at the electrode-tissue interface as well as temporarily or permanently elevated pacing capture thresholds. Minimize current flowing through the pulse generator and lead system by following these precautions when using external defibrillation on a patient with a pulse generator: Position defibrillation paddles as far from the pulse generator as possible (minimum of 13 cm)
  • Page 21 device. Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS). TENS may interfere with device function. To reduce interference, place the TENS electrodes close to one another and as far from the device/lead system as possible. Monitor cardiac activity during TENS use. Radiofrequency ablation. RF ablation in a patient with a pulse generator may cause device malfunction or damage.

    EMI to interfere with pulse generator operation if approached too closely. Communication equipment. Communication equipment such as microwave transmitters or high-power amateur transmitters may generate enough EMI to interfere with pulse generator operation if approached too closely. Home appliances. Home appliances in good working order and properly grounded do not usually produce enough EMI to interfere with pulse generator operation.

    the ICD and CRT-D systems contain a metal that may set off the airport security system alarm. If the alarm does sound, the patient should present security personnel with their patient identification card. If security personnel conduct a search with a handheld wand, the patient should ask that they perform the search quickly, stressing that they should avoid holding the wand over the device for a prolonged period.

    For devices without the Low Frequency Attenuation Filter, the default Atrial Sensitivity setting and the lowest possible setting of Ventricular Sensitivity, 0.2 mV, may be more susceptible to EMI, according to testing required by CENELEC standard EN45502-2-2. The devices comply with the electromagnetic compatibility requirements of CENELEC standard EN45502-2-2 at atrial and ventricular sensitivities of 0.3 mV and less sensitive settings.

    Device Storage FOR SINGLE USE ONLY. Do not resterilize and re-implant explanted pulse generators. St. Jude Medical has sterilized the pulse generator with ethylene oxide prior to shipment. Contact St. Jude Medical if resterilization is necessary. Do not implant the device when: It has been dropped on a hard surface because this could have damaged pulse generator ...
  • Page 29 Pulse generator operating characteristics should be verified at the time of implantation and recorded in the patient file. Complete the Patient Registration Form and return it to St. Jude Medical as it provides necessary information for warranty purposes and patient tracking.
