Longevity Projections
Projected Longevity from Implant to ERI
The following tables show the estimated time from implant to the elective replacement indicator (ERI)
being set at nominal and low output settings for Prodigy pacemakers. The estimated time varies based
on the lead impedance, the programmed amplitudes, and the percent paced.
