models ul-804 and bl-801 unipolar leads

Pacesetter Systems

Summary: The UL-804 and BL-801 are unipolar leads manufactured by Pacesetter Systems, primarily used in cardiac pacing. Key evidence includes studies on differentiation of unipolar depression and growth mechanisms.

FDA Clearance Information

Pathway 510K
Decision Date September 4, 1979
Product Code DTB
Device Class Class 3
Evidence 0 studies

The UL-804 and BL-801 unipolar leads were cleared by the FDA via the 510k pathway on September 4, 1979. Manufactured by Pacesetter Systems, they are classified as Class III devices.

What It Is

The UL-804 and BL-801 are unipolar leads designed for use in cardiac pacing systems. These devices are intended to deliver electrical impulses to the heart to maintain an adequate heart rate.

Clinical Applications

Commonly used in patients requiring cardiac pacing, these unipolar leads are integral in managing arrhythmias and ensuring proper cardiac function. They are often employed in scenarios where precise electrical stimulation of the heart is necessary.

Evidence Summary

The available literature includes 10 studies, with a mix of prospective, retrospective, and other study types. The studies span from 2022 to 2025, focusing on various aspects of unipolar mechanisms and applications.

Reported Outcomes

Published studies report on the differentiation between unipolar and bipolar depression using machine learning and EEG analysis, with an accuracy of 76%. Other studies explore unipolar growth mechanisms in bacteria, although these are not directly related to the device's clinical use.

Safety Profile

Reported complications include limited data on device-specific adverse events. The studies primarily focus on theoretical and unrelated biological mechanisms rather than direct clinical safety outcomes.

Evidence Limitations

The evidence lacks direct clinical trials on the UL-804 and BL-801 leads themselves, with most studies focusing on unrelated unipolar mechanisms. Further research is needed to establish direct clinical efficacy and safety outcomes for these devices.
