The PACE 203™ is the third generation of the Cardiotronic line of dual-chamber temporary cardiac pacemakers, designed for safe and dependable temporary stimulation of the heart for peri/post-operative pacing and/or therapy for conduction defects and rhythm disturbances. Relying on over 25 years of experience in cardiac pacing, the PACE 203 represents today's standard in temporary pacing technology.
The advanced technology and features of the PACE 203 make it the ideal choice for dual chamber temporary pacing in the OR or ICU:
The intuitive dial interface allows programming AV delay or atrial/ventricular sensitivities through only one touch compared to the three key presses needed for the Medtronic Model 5388. Clinicians can now select new parameters using the PACE 203 with just a simple twist of a dial, instead of repeated button pressing required for the Medtronic device.
By one push of a button, the PACE 203 can temporarily pause pacing to automatically measure and display the patient’s intrinsic heart activity, including atrial/ventricular rates, their corresponding intervals, P/R waves amplitudes, and AV interval.
The PACE 203 allows for statistical recording and analysis of pacer activity, to aid in determining the patient’s dependency on pacing.
The PACE 203 temporary cardiac pacemaker is designed to be used with cardiac pacing lead systems for temporary atrial or ventricular or A-V sequential pacing. The PACE 203 has applications where such pacing modes are indicated for therapeutic, prophylactic, or diagnostic purposes:
