Medtronic Temporary Pacemaker, Model 5348. Single Chamber External Pulse Generator (EPG) Temporary Pacemaker (AAI/VVI). Used in conjunction with a cardiac pacing lead system for temporary atrial or ventricular pacing in a clinical environment. The device is typically connected to temporary transvenous, epicardial or myocardial pacing leads, in a bipolar configuration, using a patient cable (Medtronic Model 5433A or 5433V) or a surgical cable (Medtronic Model 5832 or 5832S).

Status when published: Terminated — openFDA updates weekly, so this field may not reflect the current status. Always confirm with the official notice.

What's the hazard

Events related to a pacing rate outside of the intended setting, including events of sudden increased pacing rate up to the maximum setting of 180 pulses per minute (ppm), have been reported. This is caused by the development of high resistance on internal electrical connector contacts due to oxidation over time.
