Viva Quad S Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Defibrillators (CRT-D)

Viva™ Quad S CRT-D device, paired with the Attain® Performa™ Quadripolar LV Lead, features 16 Programmable Vectors, the VectorExpress™ LV Automated Test, and Ensure CRT™ Suite with five integrated algorithms that automatically work together to ensure CRT delivery during challenging conditions.

Optimize CRT Response

While CRT is a highly effective therapy, there remains a need to improve the percentage of patients who receive full benefits. Studies have shown that up to one-third of patients do not experience all of the benefits of CRT.1-6

Many factors contribute to CRT non-response, including suboptimal AV timing, suboptimal LV lead placement, presence of arrhythmias, and reduced BiV pacing.7

As part of its comprehensive approach to treating heart failure patients with CRT, Medtronic offers a variety of solutions across every stage of care, including ways to optimize CRT response.

Important Safety Information

For CRT-D devices, certain programming and device operations may not provide cardiac resynchronization therapy. Changes in a patient's disease and/or indications may alter the efficacy of a device's programmed parameters or related features and may impact longevity.
