Lead Threshold Determination Determines in situ lead characteristics of impedance, capture threshold, P/R wave amplitude and P/R wave slew rate. Determines the in vivo retrograde conduction time. Pacemaker Function Test Tests and analyzes the in vitro operation of external or implantable pulse generators. Determines the following parameters: pulse amplitude and width, A/V delay, and rate/interval.

Device Story

Portable, dual-chamber pacing system analyzer used during invasive pacemaker implantation or troubleshooting. Device connects to pacing leads or pulse generators to perform electrical testing. Functions as temporary external pulse generator providing stimulation in various modalities (DDD, VVI, etc.). Measures lead impedance, capture thresholds, P/R wave characteristics, and retrograde conduction. Analyzes pulse generator parameters including pulse amplitude, width, A/V delay, and rate. Operated by physicians in clinical settings. Touch-proof configuration ensures patient safety. Software update (v301.4) corrects operational anomalies. Output provides real-time electrical data to assist clinicians in verifying lead integrity and pulse generator function, facilitating optimal device programming and patient management.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided. Bench testing only.

Technological Characteristics

Portable, dual-chamber pacing system analyzer. Features touch-proof electrical connections. Software-controlled operation (v301.4). Performs electrical signal sensing and stimulation for pacing lead and pulse generator analysis.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients undergoing invasive pacemaker procedures or physician evaluations requiring temporary external pacing, lead threshold determination (impedance, capture threshold, P/R wave amplitude/slew rate, retrograde conduction time), or pulse generator function testing (amplitude, width, A/V delay, rate/interval).

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An external pacemaker pulse generator (EPPG) is a prescription device that has a power supply and electronic circuits that produce a periodic electrical pulse to stimulate the heart. This device, which is used outside the body, is used as a temporary substitute for the heart's intrinsic pacing system until a permanent pacemaker can be implanted, or to control irregular heartbeats in patients following cardiac surgery or a myocardial infarction. The device may have adjustments for impulse strength, duration, R-wave sensitivity, and other pacing variables.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special controls for this device are:(1) Appropriate analysis/testing must validate electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) within a hospital environment. (2) Electrical bench testing must demonstrate device safety during intended use. This must include testing with the specific power source ( *i.e.,* battery power, AC mains connections, or both).(3) Non-clinical performance testing data must demonstrate the performance characteristics of the device. Testing must include the following: (i) Testing must demonstrate the accuracy of monitoring functions, alarms, measurement features, therapeutic features, and all adjustable or programmable parameters as identified in labeling; (ii) Mechanical bench testing of material strength must demonstrate that the device and connection cables will withstand forces or conditions encountered during use; (iii) Simulated use analysis/testing must demonstrate adequate user interface for adjustable parameters, performance of alarms, display screens, interface with external devices ( *e.g.* data storage, printing), and indicator(s) functionality under intended use conditions; and(iv) Methods and instructions for cleaning the pulse generator and connection cables must be validated. (4) Appropriate software verification, validation, and hazard analysis must be performed. (5) Labeling must include the following: (i) The labeling must clearly state that these devices are intended for use in a hospital environment and under the supervision of a clinician trained in their use; (ii) Connector terminals should be clearly, unambiguously marked on the outside of the EPPG device. The markings should identify positive (+) and negative (−) polarities. Dual chamber devices should clearly identify atrial and ventricular terminals; (iii) The labeling must list all pacing modes available in the device; (iv) Labeling must include a detailed description of any special capabilities ( *e.g.,* overdrive pacing or automatic mode switching); and(v) Appropriate electromagnetic compatibility information must be included.
