Keeping hearts beating more regularly with the most advanced technologies
Using the power of leadless technology, the AVEIR™ VR Leadless Pacemaker is implanted in the heart through a minimally invasive catheter procedure.
See how the AVEIR VR Leadless Pacemaker works in a patient's heart
Young, vibrant, active – and living her best life with Abbott’s AVEIR VR Leadless Pacemaker. Chelsey needed a pacemaker, and the design of the AVEIR VR leadless pacemaker was the ideal solution for her active lifestyle.
With no wires and no arm restrictions, AVEIR VR leadless pacemaker 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 Leadless Pacemaker is implanted1
CONNECT patient's skin electrodes to Merlin ProgrammerTM via AVEIRTM Link Module
INSERT AVEIR VR Leadless Pacemaker via ergonomic catheter for minimally invasive procedure, ensuring helix is fully covered during catheter navigation
MAP ventricular implanting location before fixation by touching endocardium with AVEIR VR Leadless Pacemaker's tip electrode
FIXATE the AVEIR VR Leadless Pacemaker to the ventricular endocardium using the screw-in mechanism
RELEASE AVEIR VR Leadless Pacemaker and withdraw delivery catheter

Our Innovative Catheter Technology
AVEIR Delivery and Retrieval Catheters
- Designed for ergonomic, single operator use
- Steerable delivery catheter with deflection mechanism1,2
- Hydrophilic coating on introducer sheath and a choice of 30cm and 50cm lengths3
- Protective sleeve fully covers the AVEIR VR Leadless Pacemaker's helix during catheter navigation in order to reduce the risk of damaging the helix or an injury to cardiovascular structures1,2
Tri-loop snare re-docking mechanism
Retrieval Catheter Enables Chronic Retrieval
- AVEIR tri-loop snare re-docking mechanism enables retrieval of the Leadless Pacemaker
- AVEIR VR Leadless Pacemaker's active fixation helix uses a screw-in mechanism to enable both implantation and chronic retrieval of the Leadless Pacemaker1,4
- The AVEIR VR Leadless Pacemaker's predicate device has a chronic retrieval success rate above 80% with helix fixation through 7 years, regardless of implant duration.4 AVEIR VR Leadless Pacemaker and retrieval catheter are designed for chronic retrieval. Limited data is available for AVEIR VR Leadless Pacemaker
