2.4 Pacing and Sensing Functions
2.4.1 Pulse Amplitude and Pulse Width
The pulse amplitude and pulse width can be independently
programmed for all three channels of the Stratos CRT-Ps.
The programmed pulse amplitude determines the voltage
applied to the heart during each pacing pulse. The pulse
amplitude is independently programmable for the atrial and
ventricular channels up to 7.2 volts. The pulse amplitude
remains consistent throughout the service life of the CRT-Ps.
The pacing safety margin is therefore not reduced by a decrease
in the CRT-P's battery voltage.
