Programming System from Boston Scientific
Intended Use
The Model 3120 Programmer/Recorder/Monitor (PRM) is intended to be used as a complete system to communicate with Guidant or Boston Scientific implantable pulse generators. The software in use
controls all communication functions for the pulse generator. For detailed software application instructions, refer to the System Guide for the Guidant or Boston Scientific pulse generator being
interrogated.
Contraindications
The Model 3120 PRM is contraindicated for use with any pulse generator other than a Guidant or Boston Scientific device. For contraindications for use related to the Guidant or Boston Scientific pulse
generator, refer to the System Guide for the Guidant or Boston Scientific pulse generator being interrogated.
Warnings
There are no warnings associated with this programming system.
Precautions
For specific information on precautions, read the following sections of the product labeling: General, Preparation
for Use, Maintenance and Handling.
Adverse Effects
None known.
Refer to the product labeling for specific indications, contraindications, warnings/precautions and adverse effects. Rx only.

CRT-D System from Boston Scientific – COGNIS
®
or older
Indications and Usage
These Boston Scientific Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Defibrillators (CRT-Ds) are indicated for patients with heart failure who receive stable optimal pharmacologic therapy (OPT) for heart failure
and who meet any one of the following classifications:
• Moderate to severe heart failure (NYHA Class III-IV) with EF ≤ 35% and QRS duration ≥ 120 ms
• Left bundle branch block (LBBB) with QRS ≥ 130 ms, EF ≤ 30%, and mild (NYHA Class II) ischemic or nonischemic heart failure or asymptomatic (NYHA Class I) ischemic heart failure
Contraindications
There are no contraindications for this device.
Warnings
Read the product labeling thoroughly before implanting the pulse generator to avoid damage to the system. For single patient use only. Do not reuse, reprocess, or resterilize. Program the pulse generator
Tachy Mode to Off during implant, explant or postmortem procedures. Always have sterile external and internal defibrillator protection available during implant and electrophysiologic testing. Ensure that
an external defibrillator and medical personnel skilled in CPR are present during post-implant device testing. Advise patients to seek medical guidance before entering environments that could adversely
affect the operation of the active implantable medical device, including areas protected by a warning notice that prevents entry by patients who have a pulse generator. Do not expose a patient to MRI
scanning. Do not subject a patient with an implanted pulse generator to diathermy, Do not use atrialtracking modes in patients with chronic refractory atrial tachyarrhythmias. Do not use atrial-only modes
in patients with heart failure. LV lead dislodgment to a position near the atria can result in atrial oversensing and LV pacing inhibition. Physicians should use medical discretion when implanting this device
in patients who present with slow VT. Do not kink, twist or braid the lead with other leads. Do not use defibrillation patch leads with the CRT-D system. Do not use this pulse generator with another pulse
generator. For Patient Triggered Monitor (PTM) feature, make sure the feature is enabled prior to sending the patient home with a magnet. Once the PTM feature has been triggered and the magnet
response programming is set to inhibit therapy, the patient should not reapply the magnet.
Precautions
For specific information on precautions, refer to the following sections of the product labeling: clinical considerations; sterilization, storage and handling; implant and device programming; follow-up testing;
explant and disposal; environmental and medical therapy hazards; hospital and medical environments; home and occupational environments. Advise patients to avoid sources of electromagnetic
interference (EMI) because EMI may cause the pulse generator to deliver inappropriate therapy or inhibit appropriate therapy.
Potential Adverse Events
Potential adverse events from implantation of the CRT-D system include, but are not limited to, the following: allergic/physical/physiologic reaction, death, erosion/migration, fibrillation or other arrhythmias,
lead or accessory breakage (fracture/insulation/lead tip), hematoma/seroma, inappropriate or inability to provide therapy (shocks/pacing/sensing), infection, procedure related, and component failure.
Patients may develop psychological intolerance to a pulse generator system and may experience fear of shocking, fear of device failure, or imagined shocking. In rare cases severe complications or
device failures can occur.
Refer to the product labeling for specific indications, contraindications, warnings/precautions and adverse events. Rx only.

, and INCEPTA
TM
Indications and Usage
The PUNCTUATM, ENERGENTM, and INCEPTATM Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Defibrillators (CRT-Ds) are indicated for patients with heart failure who receive stable optimal pharmacologic
therapy (OPT) for heart failure and who meet any one of the following classifications:
• Moderate to severe heart failure (NYHA Class III-IV) with EF ≤ 35% and QRS duration ≥ 120 ms
• Left bundle branch block (LBBB) with QRS ≥ 130 ms, EF ≤ 30%, and mild (NYHA Class II) ischemic or nonischemic heart failure or asymptomatic (NYHA Class I) ischemic heart failure

For Patient Triggered Monitor (PTM) feature, make sure the feature is enabled prior to sending the patient home with a magnet. Once the PTM feature has been triggered and the magnet response
programming is set to inhibit therapy, the patient should not reapply the magnet. For DF4-LLHH or DF4-LLHO leads, use caution handling the lead terminal when the Connector Tool is not present on the
lead and do not directly contact the lead terminal with any surgical instruments or electrical connections such as PSA (alligator) clips, ECG connections, forceps, hemostats, and clamps. Do not contact
any other portion of the DF4-LLHH or DF4-LLHO lead terminal, other than the terminal pin even when the lead cap is in place.
Precautions
For specific information on precautions, refer to the following sections of the product labeling: clinical considerations; sterilization and storage; implantation; device programming; follow-up testing; explant
and disposal; environmental and medical therapy hazards; hospital and medical environments; home and occupational environments; and supplemental precautionary information. Advise patients to avoid
sources of electromagnetic interference (EMI) because EMI may cause the pulse generator to deliver inappropriate therapy or inhibit appropriate therapy.
