3 (models H170, H175) CONTAK RENEWAL 3 HE (models H177, H179) Cardiac
Resynchronization Therapy Defibrillator (CRT-D). Cardiac resynchronization
therapy defibrillators (CRT-D) provide ventricular tachyarrhythmia and
cardiac resynchronization therapies. Ventricular tachyarrhythmia therapy is for the treatment of ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular
fibrillation (VF), rhythms that are associated with sudden cardiac death
(SCD). Cardiac resynchronization therapy is for the treatment
of heart
failure (HF) and uses biventricular electrical stimulation to synchronize
ventricular contractions. Cardioversion/defibrillation therapies include a
range of low-and high-energy shocks using either a biphasic or monophasic
waveform,
b) These models are not available in the US.
Guidant CONTAK RENEWAL 4 (models H190, H195). Cardiac Resynchronization
Therapy Defibrillator (CRT-D). Cardiac resynchronization therapy
defibrillators (CRT-D) provide ventricular tachyarrhythmia and cardiac

treatment of ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF),
rhythms that are associated with sudden cardiac death (SCD). Cardiac resynchronization therapy is for the treatment of heart failure
(HF) and

e) Guidant VITALITY 2 (models
T165, T175), VITALITY DS (model T125), VITALITY EL (model T135), Implantable
Cardioverter Defibrillators (ICD), are designed to detect and terminate
ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) and provide
bradycardia therapy (atrial and ventricular pacing). Therapies include both
low- and high-energy shocks
using either a biphasic or monophasic waveform.
Vitality 2 devices also offer a wide variety of antitachycardia pacing
schemes to terminate slower, more stable ventricular tachyarrhythmias.
Bradycardia pacing, including adaptive-rate features, is available to detect
and treat bradyarrhythmias and to support the cardiac rhythm after
defibrillation therapy. Devices denoted with DR offer dual-chamber
bradycardia features (atrial and/or ventricular pacing and sensing), and the
devices denoted with VR offer single-chamber bradycardia features
(ventricular pacing and sensing),
