Event M essage

When the implant detects certain cardiac and technical events, an

event message is sent to the patient device. For each implant, you

decide what kinds of events will trigger a message. You can go to the

Home Monitoring Service Center on the Internet and configure whether

you also want to receive event reports for these events.

Certain events, e.g., when the battery reaches ERI, can never be

omitted. You can find more information about events in the online help

section for the Home Monitoring Service Center.

Patient Message

Pacemaker patients can apply a special magnet over the pacemaker

and trigger a message. Please provide your patient with comprehensive

information about how to handle the magnet and for which physical

symptoms you consider it appropriate for your patient to trigger a

message.

Caution! The special magnet may only be distributed to

pacemaker patients.

A patient-triggered message does not affect any trend message

transmission settings.

For more information about programmer settings with the patient

message, see the manual of your programmer.
