Keeping hearts beating more regularly with the most advanced technologies

Harnessing the capabilities of leadless technology, two distinct devices - one for the right atrium and one for the right ventricle – can be implanted without chest incisions or pockets. Explore the streamlined implantation procedures for atrial and ventricular leadless pacing in the single chamber workflows below to gain a deeper understanding of these minimally invasive techniques.

How the AVEIR VR Ventricular Leadless Pacemaker is implanted1

Aveir Connect

CONNECT patient's skin electrodes to MerlinTM Programmer via the EKG cable and AVEIR Link Module.

Aveir Insert

INSERT catheter with attached ventricular pacemaker and navigate to right ventricle.

Aveir Map

MAP ventricular implanting location before fixation by touching endocardium with AVEIR VR Leadless Pacemaker's tip electrode.

Aveir Fixate

FIXATE the AVEIR VR Leadless Pacemaker to the ventricular endocardium using the screw-in mechanism.

Aveir Release

RELEASE the AVEIR VR Leadless Pacemaker and withdraw delivery catheter.

 

For a more detailed workflow, refer to the AVEIR VR Instructions for Use (IFU) or contact your Abbott Sales Representative for training.

How the AVEIR AR Atrial Leadless Pacemaker is implanted2

Aveir Connect

CONNECT patient's skin electrodes to MerlinTM Programmer via the EKG cable and AVEIR Link Module.

Aveir Insert

INSERT catheter with attached atrial pacemaker and navigate to right atrium.

Aveir Map

MAP atrial implanting location before fixation by touching endocardium with AVEIR AR Leadless Pacemaker's tip electrode.

Aveir Fixate

FIXATE the AVEIR AR Leadless Pacemaker to the atrial endocardium using the screw-in mechanism.

Aveir Release

RELEASE the AVEIR AR Leadless Pacemaker and withdraw delivery catheter.

Our Innovative Catheter Technology 

AVEIR Delivery and Retrieval Catheters

  • Designed for ergonomic, single operator use. 

  • Steerable catheter with deflection mechanism.1

  • Hydrophilic coating on introducer sheath and a choice of 30cm and 50cm lengths.4

  • Protective sleeve fully covers the AVEIR Leadless Pacemaker's helix during catheter navigation in order to reduce the risk of damaging the helix or an injury to cardiovascular structures.1,3

Tri-loop snare re-docking mechanism

Retrieval Catheter Enables Long-Term Retrieval 

  • AVEIR tri-loop snare re-docking mechanism enables retrieval of the Leadless Pacemaker.

  • AVEIR VR and AR Leadless Pacemakers' active fixation helix uses a screw-in mechanism to enable both implantation and long-term retrieval of the Leadless Pacemaker.1,5

  • The AVEIR VR Leadless Pacemaker's predicate device has an overall long-term retrieval success rate above 88% with helix fixation through 9 years of retrieval experience.5  Limited data is available for AVEIR VR LP.
