Product Description

Reocor D is a battery-powered, external dual-cham-
ber pacemaker, which can be used in conjunction with
temporary pacemaker leads (including endocardial
leads and transvenous implantable catheters) for
temporary atrial, ventricular and AV sequential pacing
in clinical settings. 
The connection is made directly or via a separate
patient cable and adapter, if necessary.
There are six pacing modes available: DDD, D00, VDD,
VVI, V00 and VVT, as well as an atrial burst function.
The pacing mode, rate, sensitivity and pulse ampli-
tude, AV delay and burst rate are adjustable.
LEDs display the sense (Sense), pace (Pace) and
battery status (Low battery). 
An acoustic signal sounds when a very high frequency
or very low sensitivity value is set and when the lead
impedance is not optimal.
A defect of the device (failed self-test after the device
was switched on) is indicated by continuously lit LEDs
and an intermittent acoustic signal. If the self-test
does not find any errors, the acoustic and visual
signals will turn off after a few seconds.
The safety features of Reocor D include:
• Visual display of sensed and paced events
• Microprocessor-controlled pacing parameters
• Lead impedance monitoring
• Visual warning when the battery is almost
depleted
• A movable, transparent cover of the controls to
prevent accidental changes of the programmed
parameters
Temporary catheters, heart wires and leads with
2-mm plugs can be connected directly to Reocor D.
