St. Jude Medical Inc is a provider of cardiac rhythm management, atrial fibrillation, cardiac surgery, cardiology and neuron modulation. The company also offers neuron spinal microscopes, ENT microscopes, dental microscopes, ophthalmology and surgical microscope adapters. St. Jude has now introduced Entity DR Pacemakers.
These pacemakers from the company offer a balance of automatic, rate-responsive therapy with a broad range of sophisticated functions. Their primary feature is the exclusive ventricular AutoCapture pacing systems. This feature of Entity DR Pacemakers assures beat-by-beat capture management for optimal patient safety and pacemaker longevity. These devices include the clinically proven Omnisense accelerometer sensors that feature an auto rest rate based on activity rather than on preset clock settings, auto slope and auto threshold.
Other features of Entity DR Pacemakers include auto mode switching, post-ventricular atrial blanking, PMT options, PVC options, ventricular blanking and ventricular safety standby, polarity lock-out and non-invasive EPS capability. The omnisense accelerometer simplifies programming, eliminates the need for lengthy sensor optimisation sessions and reprogramming and reduces the number of follow-ups required to fine-tune the sensor response.
