St. Jude Medical scores CE mark to label its Quadra Allure MP cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemaker MR conditional

Press releases may be edited for formatting or style | November 07, 2016 Cardiology

The new Quadra Allure MP CRT-P with MRI labeling is also compatible with the SyncAV™ CRT software, designed to build upon the MultiPoint Pacing technology and further optimize St. Jude Medical’s comprehensive CRT portfolio. The SyncAV CRT technology, which automatically adjusts pacing based on real-time changes in a patient’s cardiac condition, also provides physicians the opportunity to further improve treatment of patients who have responded positively to traditional CRT.

Quadripolar technology offers physicians more options to manage heart failure and facilitates additional pacing configurations within the heart that offer physicians options not available in traditional bipolar systems.

About Heart Failure
Approximately 23 million people worldwide are afflicted with congestive heart failure and 2 million new cases are diagnosed worldwide each year. Studies have shown that CRT can improve the quality of life for many patients with heart failure, a progressive condition in which the heart weakens and loses its ability to pump an adequate supply of blood. CRT resynchronizes the lower chambers (ventricles) of the heart by sending uniquely programmed electrical impulses to stimulate each ventricle to beat in sync for optimal cardiac performance.
