DX Technology is a unique hybrid system combining the advantages of both single- and dual-chamber ICD systems. It offers AF detection, 3-channel IEGMs, SVT discrimination, and A-V sequential pacing like a dual-chamber system, while making procedures less complex and allowing for lower implant complication rates. Atrial signals can be reliably sensed by the floating dipole rings located in the proximal part of the DX lead, thanks to a special atrial input stage of the DX device.

For many years, patients with a pacemaker, ICD or CRT device, have been denied access to MRI. The cardiac devices were not approved for MRI scanning and the influence of magnetic resonance imaging on implanted cardiac systems was not yet tested.

For more than 20 years, patients with pacemakers or defibrillators have benefitted from the Closed Loop Stimulation (CLS) sensor, offered only by BIOTRONIK. This intelligent cardiac sensor can be activated by clinicians to help patients live a normal life during physical and emotional situations. CLS is available in IPGs and more recently in ICDs as well as CRTs.
