Atrial Fibrillation Media Kit

Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a chaotic, uncontrolled heart rhythm that occurs when the upper chambers of the heart contract rapidly and irregularly.

Media Kit Bradycardia and Tachycardia

Bradycardia and Pacemakers

Bradycardia is a condition in which the heart beats too slowly. A person with bradycardia may benefit from a cardiac pacemaker.

Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease Media Kit

Deep Brain Stimulation For Parkinson's Disease

Deep brain stimulation is a therapy that uses mild electrical pulses from an implanted device to stimulate specific targets in the brain for the symptomatic treatment of Parkinson's disease.

FFR Media Kit

Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR)

FFR is a physiological index which determines the severity of blood flow blockages in the coronary arteries and is measured using St. Jude Medical's PressureWire technology.

Heart Failure and Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Media Kit

Heart Failure and Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy

Heart failure (HF) is an increasing dysfunction of the pumping action in the heart. HF symptoms can be treated using a cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) device.

Peripheral Nerve Stimulation For Intractable Chronic Migraine

Peripheral Nerve Stimulation For Intractable Chronic Migraine

Peripheral nerve stimulation is a therapy that uses mild electrical pulses from an implanted device to manage the pain and disability associated with intractable chronic migraine.

Spinal Cord Stimulation Media Kit

Spinal Cord Stimulation for Chronic Pain

Spinal Cord Stimulation is used for the management of chronic pain of the trunk and limbs.

Sudden Cardiac Arrest or Ventricular Arrhythmias and ICDs Media Kit

SCA or Ventricular Arrhythmias and ICDs

Patients with ventricular arrhythmias or patients who experience sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) can benefit from an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD), which can shock the heart back into a normal rhythm.

Valvular Disease and Heart Valves Media Kit

Valvular Disease and Heart Valves

There are many causes of heart valve disease. When a valve becomes damaged and blood flow is compromised, the valve may need to be repaired with a ring or replaced with a mechanical or tissue valve.
