General Description
Measures to restore proper function of Reocor D:
— Check the connection between device and
temporary pacing leads and adjust, if neces-
sary.
— Correctly adjust the sensitivity of the Reocor D:
Often, the sensitivity safety margin is half the
average intrinsic signal amplitude.
— Turn off all electric devices in the vicinity of
Reocor D if they can cause electromagnetic
interference and their operation is not abso-
lutely necessary.
— Move the interference source to a location
where the interference cannot have an affect
on the Reocor D.
— If safe to do: Switch Reocor D off and then on
again to reset the pacemaker to interference-
free operation.
— If the technical failure persists, please contact
BIOTRONIK.
• If the atrial sensitivity is set to a value less than
1 mV, interference from electromagnetic fields
could result. Thus, if possible sensitivity values
higher than 1 mV should be programmed.
Programming sensitivity values to less than 1 mV
requires explicit medical necessity. Values like this
can only be set and retained with physician super-
vision.
