The ICD/CRT-D is mechanically compatible with DF-1
defibrillation lead connectors and IS-1 sensing and pacing lead
connectors. IS-1, wherever stated in this manual, refers to the
international standard, whereby leads and pulse generators from
different manufacturers are assured a basic fit [Reference ISO
5841-3:1992]. DF-1, wherever stated in this manual, refers to the
international standard [Reference ISO 11318:1993].
Refer to the appropriate lead system technical manual.
4.3 Opening the Sterile Container
The Lumax ICD/CRT-Ds are packaged in two plastic containers,
one within the other. Each is individually sealed and then
sterilized with ethylene oxide.
Due to the double packing, the outside of the inner container is
sterile and can be removed using standard aseptic technique and
placed on the sterile field.
Peel off the sealing paper of the
outer container as indicated by
the arrow. Do not contaminate the
inner tray.
Take out the inner sterile tray by
gripping the tab. Open the inner
tray by peeling the sealing paper
as indicated by the arrow.
