QTECH™ PROGRAMMER: GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Description
The Q-TECH Programmer (the programmer”), Model 3200, is a component of the Cameron Health/
Boston Scientic S-ICD System, which is prescribed for patients when cardiac arrhythmia management
is warranted. The other components of the S-ICD System include the SQ-RX Pulse Generator (the “SQ-
RX device”), Q-TRAK Subcutaneous Electrode (“electrode”) and the Q-GUIDE Subcutaneous Electrode
Insertion Tool (“EIT”).
The programmer is a non–sterile, non–implantable, tablet computer controlled by a graphic user
interface (GUI) displayed on a touchscreen. The programmer is powered by either AC line power
or an internal lithium ion battery pack. The programmer uses a connected RF telemetry wand to
communicate wirelessly with the SQ-RX device to enable adjustment of programmable settings as well
as collection of data.
The S-ICD System is designed for ease of use and simplicity of patient management. The S-ICD System
has a number of automatic functions designed to reduce the amount of time required for implantation,
initial programming and patient follow-up.
Indications for Use
The S-ICD System is intended to provide debrillation therapy for the treatment of life-threatening
ventricular tachyarrhythmias in patients who do not have symptomatic bradycardia, incessant
ventricular tachycardia, or spontaneous, frequently recurring ventricular tachycardia that is reliably
terminated with anti-tachycardia pacing.
Intended Use
The programmer is intended to communicate with the SQ-RX device. The programmer software controls
all SQ-RX device communication functions.
Contraindications
Unipolar pacemakers are contraindicated for use with the S-ICD System.
Programmer Warnings and Cautions
General
External debrillation equipment should be available for immediate use during the
implantation procedure and follow-up.
Use the programmer only with the external power supply packaged with the programmer.
Using other accessories may cause damage to the programmer.
