AVEIR™ VR Leadless Pacemaker

Aveir VR Leadless Pacemaker

Keeping hearts beating  more regularly with the most advanced technologies

Using the power of leadless technology, the AVEIR VR Leadless Pacemaker (LP) is implanted in the heart through a minimally invasive catheter procedure.

Young, vibrant, active – Chelsey needed a pacemaker, and the design of the AVEIR VR LP was the ideal solution for her active lifestyle.

With no wires and no arm restrictions, AVEIR VR LP got her back to the gym and back to life - it’s her safety net. “It catches me when I need it.”


How the AVEIR VR LP is implanted1

Aveir Connect

CONNECT patient's skin electrodes to Merlin ProgrammerTM via AVEIRTM Link Module

Aveir Insert

INSERT AVEIR VR LP via ergonomic catheter for minimally invasive procedure, ensuring helix is fully covered during catheter navigation

Aveir Map

MAP ventricular implanting location before fixation by touching endocardium with AVEIR VR LP's tip electrode

Aveir Fixate

FIXATE the AVEIR VR LP to the ventricular endocardium using the screw-in mechanism

Aveir Fixate

RELEASE AVEIR VR LP and withdraw delivery catheter

 

For a more detailed workflow, refer to the AVEIR VR LP Instructions for Use (IFU) or contact your Abbott Sales Representative for training.

Our Innovative Catheter Technology 

AVEIR Delivery and Retrieval Catheters1,2

  • Designed for ergonomic, single operator use 

  • Steerable catheters with deflection mechanism

  • Hydrophilic coating on introducer sheath and a choice of 30cm and 50cm lengths3

  • Protective sleeve fully covers the AVEIR VR LP's helix during catheter navigation in order to reduce the risk of damaging the helix or an injury to cardiovascular structures

Retrieval Catheter Enables Long-Term Retrieval 

  • AVEIR tri-loop snare re-docking mechanism enables retrieval of the leadless pacemaker

  • AVEIR VR LP's active fixation helix uses a screw-in mechanism to enable both implantation and long-term retrieval of the leadless pacemaker1,4

  • The AVEIR VR LP's predicate device has a long-term retrieval success rate above 88% with helix fixation through 9 years, regardless of implant duration.4 AVEIR VR LP and retrieval catheter are designed for long-term retrieval. Limited data is available for AVEIR VR LP.
