ItemElox P
Features
  • Bipolar screw-in Lead
  • Small tip to ring distance
  • Increased pacing impedance
  • The electrically active surface of the pacing electrode was significantly decreased to 2 mm˛ by partial coating of the electrically active fixation helix
  • The reduction of the electrically active different electrode results in increased pacing impedances and corresponding energy conservation
  • The fixation helix is extendable/retractable

Product Description
Elox P is a lead used in conjunction with implantable, dual-chamber defibrillators and pacemakers for pacing and sensing. In contrast to passive fixation leads, leads with active fixation require no trabecular meshwork for anchoring. This enables the lead to be placed in any electrically appropriate location in the atrium or ventricle.

The small tip to ring distance of only 10 mm decreases the sensing of ventricular far-field signals and external interfering signals. At the same time, atrial and ventricular fibrillation is detected more easily. For these reasons, this lead is suitable for patients with tachyarrhythmias.
