SOPHÒS 150
Dual chamber pacemaker based on an efficient microprocessor technology. Sophòs 150 is characterized by an hemodynamic sensor based on Trans Valvular Impedance (TVI).
These characteristics, with a wide range of programmable parameters and functions, allow an effective optimization of therapy for each patient.
Special Functions
• Advanced management of frequencies
• Advanced management of AV Delay
• Protection functions on tachycardia or ectopic events
• Advanced “electrophysiology” section
• Ejection check after ventricular pacing
• Ejection check after ventricular sensing
TVI
Sensor
The TVI signal (Trans Valvular Impedance) is measured between right atrium and right ventricle.
The possibility to choose the electrodic configuration to measure signal and the auto-calibration current system in order for such detection, allow to obtain an optimal signal in every implant, also in those cases of elective pacemaker substitution.
The sensor detects, cycle by cycle, the effective mechanical heart contraction, allowing to realize the functions of permanent ventricular ejection check with automatic adjustment of pacing energy in case of loss of capture (ejection check after ventricular pacing) and protection in case of oversensing with an automatic safety pacing in case of external interferences (ejection check after ventricular sensing).
Furthermore, it’s possible to obtain an hemodynamic monitoring of the patient, thank’s to the long term storage capacity: in case of decay of hemodynamic performance an appropriate warning will be visible to the user on the programmer’s screen.
Diagnostic
A wide diagnostic section, managed easily by programmer, allows to obtain all necessary information for an optimal pacemaker operation according to patient’s requirements.
