INDICATIONS FOR USE1,10

AVEIR™ VR VENTRICULAR LEADLESS PACEMAKER (LP)
 

  • Significant bradycardia and normal sinus rhythm with only rare episodes of atrial ventricular (AV) block or sinus arrest
  • Chronic atrial fibrillation

FIND OUT MORE ABOUT:

BRADYCARDIA

*Ventricular device providing AV synchrony based on the mechanical sensing of atrial activity. Device provides AV synchrony at rest and rate responsive (VVIR) pacing during periods of high patient activity.
† AAI(R)+VVI mode should not be used in patients without intact AV node conduction, or with chronic atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter.
AAI, atrial pacing; AAI(R), atrial pacing rate response; AF, atrial fibrillation; AV, atrioventricular; AVB, atrioventricular block; AVM, atrial management; DDD, dual-chamber pacing; DDD(R), dual-chamber pacing rate response; DR, double chamber; ESC, European Society of Cardiology; i2i, implant-to-implant; LP, leadless pacemaker; SND, sinus node dysfunction; TV, transvenous; VVI, single chamber ventricular pacing; VVIR, single chamber ventricular pacing rate response.

AVEIR™ VR LP in young and high-risk patients

IMPLANTING AVEIR™ VR LP IN YOUNG AND HIGH-RISK PATIENTS IS MORE ECONOMICALLY BENEFICIAL LONG TERM COMPARED WITH TRANSVENOUS PACEMAKERS (TVPs).19

Individual level:

Although AVEIR™ VR LPs have higher upfront implantation costs than single‑chamber ventricular TVPs, this initial cost difference is offset over time by lower complication costs and longer battery life.

  • In patients requiring >11 years of ventricular pacing, LPs are less costly than TVPs
  • In patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and requiring permanent ventricular pacing, implanting LP concomitantly with TAVI is less costly than implanting a post-TAVI TVP

Population level:

LP implantation has a ≥95% probability of reducing long‑term costs vs TVPs in:

  • Patients aged ≤75 years (overall or tricuspid subgroup)
  • Patients aged ≤80 years in high‑risk groups (excluding tricuspid and end-stage renal disease)
  • All end-stage renal disease and TAVI patients
