3. CONTRAINDICATIONS

Implantation of INTENSIA SonR CRT-D 184 is contraindicated in patients:

─ whose ventricular tachyarrhythmias may have transient or reversible causes such as:

acute myocardial infarction, digitalis intoxication, drowning, electrocution, electrolyte

imbalance, hypoxia, sepsis, or unstable ischemic episodes,

─ who present incessant tachyarrhythmia,

─ who have an internal pacemaker,

─ whose primary disorder is bradyarrhythmias, or atrial tachyarrhythmias.

Dual-chamber and single chamber atrial pacing is contraindicated in patients with chronic

refractory atrial tachyarrhythmias.
