CRT-D 9770 can still function for:
7.4 months (100% atrial and biventricular pacing in DDD mode,
500 ohms, with as-shipped settings), and deliver 7 shocks at
34 J or
6.4 months (0% pacing, sensors OFF, one 42 J shock every
2 weeks).
Once the Elective Replacement Indicator (ERI) point has been
reached, the device operates normally, except that the charge time
increases. Under normal conditions (and without programmer use)
the charge times are as follows:
