The Medtronic Attesta L DR MRI SureScan (ATDRL1) is a dual-chamber, rate-responsive implantable pacemaker designed to treat bradycardia. It features MRI SureScan technology, allowing patients access to MRI scans, and includes to reduce unnecessary right ventricular pacing.
Key Features and Details
- Model: ATDRL1 (Attesta™ L DR MRI SureScan™).
- Type: Dual-chamber pacemaker (places leads in both the atrium and ventricle to maintain AV synchrony).
- MRI Compatibility: SureScan technology ensures it is safe for MRI environments under specific conditions.
- Functionality: Rate-responsive pacing for patients whose heart rate needs to increase with physical activity.
- Manufacturer: Medtronic Inc..
Important Safety Information
- Safety Notice: A 2019 safety alert indicated that certain Medtronic devices in this family (Adapta, Sensia, Attesta) could experience a circuit error when programmed to dual-chamber modes with atrial sensing, potentially requiring a ventricular-sensed event (VS) to restore pacing.
- Management: The issue was addressed through programming recommendations to prevent the error
