Table 1:
Numeric Code | Code Description | Source | IPG Rechargeable? (Y/N) | Suggested Action |
---|---|---|---|---|
0 | IPG deactivated | EMI or internal software conflict | N | Prompt follow-up for assessment and reactivation |
1 | Lead impedance change | Normal post-implant change vs. lead malfunction | Y | Prompt follow-up if message persistently recurring |
2 | CCM inactive | Exposure to strong magnetic field or high current condition with low impedance | Y | Prompt follow-up for impedance evaluation |
3 | CCM delivery not programmed | CCM turned off or in “standby” | Y | Prompt follow-up for reactivation |
4 | % CCM therapy low | Sensing changes, arrhythmia, or lead malfunction | Y | Prompt follow-up for arrhythmia management, mode, sensing, impedance, and/or detection window adjustment |
5 | Optimizer Smart™ temperature issue | Febrile illness or abnormal IPG/charger interaction | Not suggested | Pause charging, prompt follow-up, physical exam |
6 | Internal charger fault | Charger malfunction | N | Prompt follow-up for charger replacement |
7 | IPG not Optimizer Smart™ device | Wrong-generation Optimizer charger | N | Re-educate appropriately matched charger use |
8 | Battery depleted | Battery discharged completely or has operation interference | Not suggested | Pause charging, prompt follow-up |
Abbreviations: CCM, cardiac contractility modulation; EMI, electromagnetic interference; IPG, internal pulse generator; N, no; Y, yes.
