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.
Clinical Applications
These pacing leads are commonly used in cardiology, particularly in the implantation of pacemakers for patients with symptomatic bradycardia or heart block. The procedure is typically performed in a hospital setting, often in a cardiac catheterization lab or operating room. Patients benefiting from these devices include those with congenital heart conditions, post-operative heart surgery patients, and the elderly with degenerative heart diseases.
Indications for Use
The FDA-cleared indications for these pacing leads include their use in patients who require electrical pacing to maintain adequate heart rate and rhythm. This typically involves individuals with conditions such as atrioventricular block or sick sinus syndrome.
Practical Considerations
When selecting pacing leads, considerations include the lead's length and diameter to ensure compatibility with the patient's anatomy and the pacemaker device. Proper technique during insertion is crucial to prevent complications such as lead dislodgment or infection.
