1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
REPLY DR is a DDDR-type dual-chamber rate-responsive
pacemaker.
It is equipped with a physiological sensor (minute ventilation) and an
accelerometer to allow adaptation of pacing to suit the patient’s
activity.
REPLY DR provides a range of highly effective therapeutic functions:
! Prevention of atrial arrhythmias
! Protection of ventricles against atrial arrhythmias (Fallback Mode
Switching)
! Preservation of atrioventricular conduction (SafeR mode and
Dplus mode)
! Preservation of circadian cardiac rhythm (Rest rate)
! Prevention of vasovagal syncope (acceleration)
! Automatic adjustment of amplitude of ventricular pacing (Auto-
threshold)
! Automatic adjustment of atrial and ventricular sensitivity
(Autosensing)
! Protection against Pacemaker-Mediated Tachycardia (Anti-PMT)
2. INDICATIONS
Pacing indications are provided by the American College of
Cardiology and the American Heart Association (see "ACC/AHA/HRS
2008 Guidelines for Device-Based Therapy of Cardiac Rhythm
Abnormalities", J Am Coll Cardiol 2008 May 27;51(21):e1-62).
