The pacing lead models MVM 860 and MVM 890 were cleared through the FDA 510(k) pathway on December 8, 1978, by the manufacturer R.E. Brown. This device is classified as Class 3 under the product code DTB.

What It Is

The pacing lead models MVM 860 and MVM 890 are components of cardiac pacemaker systems. These leads are designed to deliver electrical impulses from the pacemaker to the heart muscle, ensuring proper heart rhythm. They are typically inserted into the heart via the venous system and are crucial for the effective management of bradycardia and other arrhythmias.

FDA-Cleared Indications

  • Use with a cardiac pacemaker system when electrical pacing is required to maintain an adequate heart rate and rhythm.
  • Use in patients with bradyarrhythmias, including atrioventricular block or sick sinus syndrome, when pacing is clinically indicated.

Clinical Applications

  • Transvenous placement as part of a permanent pacemaker implantation.
  • Delivery of pacing impulses from a pacemaker generator to the heart muscle.
  • Cardiac pacing for clinically significant bradycardia or conduction-system disease when a pacemaker is indicated.

Practical Considerations

  • The lead must be compatible with the selected pacemaker generator and appropriately sized for the patient's venous anatomy and intended lead position.
  • Placement requires venous access and imaging or fluoroscopic guidance, with testing to confirm lead position and electrical performance.
  • The record provided does not establish MRI-conditional labeling; MRI safety should be verified from the original device labeling and the complete implanted system.
  • Potential lead-related complications include dislodgment, failure to capture or sense, venous injury or obstruction, infection, and cardiac perforation.
  • Use, contraindications, handling, and removal should follow the original manufacturer labeling and current institutional cardiac-device protocols.
