What is Home Monitoring? Dear Patient. You have received a BIOTRONIK pacemaker or implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) with a Home Monitoring function. The Home Monitoring feature provides your attending physician with messages recorded by your implant at regular intervals, giving him or her information about your heart’s status. Your implant has a small wireless transmitter. Your patient device, which we will call the CardioMessenger, receives the implant messages and transmits them to the BIOTRONIK Service Center. The data are processed there and can be viewed only by your physician via fax and on the Internet (when available) in the form of a comprehensive report called a Cardio report. Your doctor can use these data to decide whether your implant settings need to be updated or if your therapy plan needs to be changed. If necessary, your physician will contact you about making an appointment for a follow-up examination. For Home Monitoring to work, your implant must have the Home Monitoring function, and there must be cellular service in your area (GSM network). The power of the transmission in your implant is low so as not to impair your health in any way. Since the transmission range is so short (less than 2 meters, or 6 feet), you need to use the CardioMessenger to send the information to the BIOTRONIK Service Center. Note: If the CardioMessenger is not operational or is located too far from the implant to receive information (more than 6 feet), your implant still functions normally. Only the Home Monitoring function is inactive. Although the data recorded by the implant cannot be transmitted, they are saved so that your physician can evaluate them during your regularly scheduled follow-up examination. If you have any questions, please contact your physician. 4 About This Technical Manual About This Technical Manual User group The CardioMessenger is to be used by patients with a BIOTRONIK pacemaker or an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) with the Home Monitoring function.

Safety Precautions – What Should I Watch Out For? The CardioMessenger and its components are medical devices and therefore comply with strict standards for their development, manufacture, and testing. Please observe the following safety instructions: WARNING! Turn off the CardioMessenger in locations where cell phones are prohibited, such as hospitals or airplanes. Such areas can be identified by the following or similar signs: WARNING! Maintain a minimum distance between the patient device and your implant. Like a cellular phone, the CardioMessenger device can temporarily interfere with your implant if it is too close to it. To avoid interference, maintain a minimum distance of 20 centimeters (7 inches) between the CardioMessenger and implant. Never place the CardioMessenger on your chest directly over the implant. Do not carry the CardioMessenger inside the breast pocket of your shirt or jacket, and not directly on your skin. Caution! Protect the CardioMessenger and charging station from: — Water and high humidity (e.g., in the bathroom) — Temperatures above 40°C (104°F) — Temperatures below 10°C (50°F) for the charging station 7 Safety Precautions – What Should I Watch Out For? — Temperatures below -5°C (23°F) for the CardioMessenger — Barometric pressure below 700 and above 1060 hPa — Violent shocks or other strong mechanical influences — Strong sources of light (direct sunlight, strong halogen lamps) — Solvents, acids, detergents, and lyes — Handle the antenna with care. Caution! Never use the CardioMessenger if it has been damaged; return it to your physician. Before use, make sure that none of the components are visibly damaged. Only use the following original BIOTRONIK devices: — The CardioMessenger — The charging station with the appropriate power supply unit, type FW 7555 M/06 Other accessories can increase the interference emitted and the device’s susceptibility to interference. Caution! Note: The CardioMessenger may only be opened and repaired by authorized trained personnel, and the rechargeable batteries (type LP 103463) may only be exchanged by professionals. Do not throw away the CardioMessenger with household trash. Dispose of it according to legal guidelines, like you would for other electronic components, such as computers. In particular, rechargeable lithium ion batteries should be disposed of by the manufacturer according to legal guidelines. Caution! The covered data ports are not intended for the user. Do not remove the cover. 8 Safety Precautions – What Should I Watch Out For? Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) Systems Equipment such as retail theft prevention systems may interact with the implanted device. Patients should be advised to walk directly through and not to remain near an EAS system longer than necessary. 9 How Do I Use the CardioMessenger? How Do I Use the CardioMessenger? The following section describes how to operate and use the CardioMessenger. What must be done before using the CardioMessenger? Find a suitable place to put the CardioMessenger and charging station. The distance between your implant and the CardioMessenger should not be too close in order to prevent interference with implant operation. On the other hand, the distance should not be beyond the implant transmitter’s range. Note: Home Monitoring can only work when the distance between the implant and CardioMessenger is not less than 20 centimeters (7 inches) and not more than 2 meters (6 feet). • Place the device on a solid base so that it cannot fall. • Keep the CardioMessenger from being exposed to moisture; bathrooms, for example, are unsuitable locations for the CardioMessenger. • Do not expose the device to heat; direct sunlight is also not recommended. • Do not place the device next to a television, microwave oven, or a similar source of interference. Where should I put the CardioMessenger? A nightstand would be a good place for the CardioMessenger since the distance between you and the CardioMessenger would probably not be more than 2 meters (6 feet). In addition, your attending physician will probably select nighttime as the regular transmission time. 10 How Do I Use the CardioMessenger? While resting at night, your implant data can be sent to the CardioMessenger and then transmitted to the BIOTRONIK Service Center. How do I plug in the CardioMessenger? Make sure that the local supply voltage lies within the permissible operating range of 100-240 Volts at 5060 Hz. If this is the case, insert the power supply cable plug into the socket. The power supply has a long cable with a small plug at the end. Connect this plug to the charging station. The corresponding port is located on the back of the charging station. After connecting the charging station, the light will be illuminated, and the charging station will then be operational. The CardioMessenger "traffic light" system Your CardioMessenger has four lights. Three are arranged like a traffic light, and one is separate and monitors the battery. All lights can be lit continuously, flash quickly or slowly, or out. Whether or not the lights flash or are lit continuously, the operation of your implant remains unaffected. Lights The following section discusses the three modes of the “traffic light” system. Red: When the red light flashes, your attending physician wants you to call. This will rarely occur. You will be informed by your physician if it is necessary to use this feature. 11 How Do I Use the CardioMessenger? Yellow: An illuminated or flashing yellow light indicates a temporary stage. This occurs, for example, when the CardioMessenger is looking for a connection to the GSM network. When the yellow light is continuously lit, there is a problem. For further information, see the ”Troubleshooting” section on page 13. Green: When the green light flashes, it means that the CardioMessenger is operating properly. Battery monitor light In the following, the three states of the battery monitor light are described as follows: Red: When the light flashes red, the CardioMessenger batteries are nearly empty. Yellow: When the light flashes yellow, there is a problem with charging the CardioMessenger. If the light is continuously yellow, the CardioMessenger is charging. Green: When the light is green, the CardioMessenger is fully charged and can be used up to 24 hours away from the base. Turning on the CardioMessenger Press the on/off button of the CardioMessenger for approximately two seconds. A brief tone will sound, and the yellow light goes on. After approximately ten seconds when the CardioMessenger self-test is over, the yellow and green lights will start to flash. The CardioMessenger is then trying to establish a connection with the mobile telephone network. After five minutes at most, the yellow light will stop flashing, and the green light will start to flash slowly. This means your CardioMessenger is now ready to work. 12 How Do I Use the CardioMessenger? If this does not happen, please refer to the ”Troubleshooting” section on page 13. Turning off the CardioMessenger Press the CardioMessenger on/off button for approximately two seconds. You will hear a brief tone, and the yellow light will go out. The CardioMessenger is now switched off; no data can be received or transmitted. You can only turn the CardioMessenger back on after approximately five to six seconds. Charging the CardioMessenger When the battery monitoring light flashes red, the CardioMessenger needs to be recharged. Place the CardioMessenger in the charging station. The charging process will start immediately. During the charging process, the battery monitor light of the CardioMessenger will be yellow. If the battery monitor light flashes yellow, there is a problem. Please refer to the ”Troubleshooting” section on page 13 to find out how to resolve this problem. When the battery monitor light of the CardioMessenger is green, charging is complete. Charging usually takes no longer than six hours. Note: When the CardioMessenger is being charged and used at the same time, the battery monitor light can be alternately illuminated green and yellow at the end of the charging process. This does not signify a problem; it simply means that the battery is almost completely charged. 13 How Do I Use the CardioMessenger? How do I know when the batteries are running low? When the CardioMessenger batteries are nearly empty, the battery monitor light will flash red. Place the CardioMessenger in the charging station. Charging will start immediately, which is indicated when the battery monitor light is illuminated yellow. When the batteries are completely charged, the battery monitor light will be green. Note: If you take the CardioMessenger out of the charging station, the battery monitor light will go out to save energy. How do I know that the CardioMessenger is receiving and transmitting implant data? The data are received and transmitted automatically at specific intervals determined by your doctor so that you do not have to monitor data transmission. When the CardioMessenger is receiving data from your implant, the green light will flash faster than normal for two to three seconds. Since this usually occurs at night, you will rarely observe the rapidly flashing green light of the CardioMessenger. After the CardioMessenger receives the implant data, they are sent to the BIOTRONIK Service Center. The green light will flash again slowly until the information has been transmitted to the BIOTRONIK Service Center. Troubleshooting Problems with your CardioMessenger are easy to identify, and they are usually easy to deal with. 14 Note: How Do I Use the CardioMessenger? When the red light in the “traffic light” flashes, it does not indicate a problem. It means you must call your physician. Your physician will inform you if this feature is used. However, when the yellow light in the “traffic light” flashes or is continuously lit, there is a problem. Continuous flashing First turn the CardioMessenger on and off. If you see the green and yellow light flashing for five minutes after turning the CardioMessenger back on, there is no connection to the GSM network. If you place the CardioMessenger in a location with good reception, you will not necessarily need to turn it on or off. Note: It can take up to 15 minutes before a connection is established to a GSM network. If the CardioMessenger is close to your bed and generally cannot establish a connection to the GSM network, contact your physician. Continuous illumination Turn the CardioMessenger on and off. If the yellow light continues to be illuminated, reset the CardioMessenger by restarting it. Note: Other transmitters can interfere with the receiver that the CardioMessenger uses for implant information. If this should occur, the physician will contact you. Note: A properly functioning CardioMessenger has no influence on the operation of your implant. Resetting If the yellow CardioMessenger light is flashing or continuously illuminated, you have already turned it on and off, and you have eliminated all possible sources of error, reset it by restarting the CardioMessenger. Press the reset button (located on the back of the CardioMessenger) with a sharp object such as a ballpoint pen or the end of a straightened paper clip. 15 How Do I Use the CardioMessenger? Then turn the CardioMessenger on as usual. If only the yellow light is illuminated after five minutes, the CardioMessenger may be defective. Talk with your physician. 16 When Does My Implant Transmit Data? When Does My Implant Transmit Data? There are three times when your implant sends information. • Your implant is configured by your physician to periodically send messages at a specific time, usually while you are sleeping. • Your physician can also set your implant to automatically send a message when certain events occur. • Transmission can be activated by a special magnet (pacemaker patients only). This is done by placing the magnet directly over the implant. Your doctor will explain this to you if, how, and when it is necessary. WARNING! Patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators should not place a magnet over their chest, as this interferes with the proper functioning of their ICD. WARNING! Pacemakers sometimes use a special magnet to trigger a message. If you have a pacemaker, only apply the magnet if your physician explicitly requests it and gives you a suitable magnet. 17 How Do I Take Care of the CardioMessenger? How Do I Take Care of the CardioMessenger? Handle the CardioMessenger with care, so that you will be able to use it for a long time and so that BIOTRONIK can guarantee its proper operation: • Keep the device clean and away from dirty or dusty environments. • Use a soft cloth for cleaning. If necessary, the cloth can be moistened with water. Do not immerse the device in water. • Protect the device from direct contact with water. For example, wear the device under your coat when it rains, and use the provided belt carrying case. Give the CardioMessenger back to your doctor when it no longer works. The CardioMessenger does not need to be serviced at regular intervals by a technician. Note: Before each use, inspect the CardioMessenger, charging station, power supply unit and cable, and make sure they are not damaged. If you find damage, consult your physician. If handled properly, the installed batteries should supply the CardioMessenger with 24 hours of power even after 500 charging cycles (which is about two years). If this is not the case, check whether the CardioMessenger was completely charged during the next charging cycle. Additional information can be found in the ”Charging the CardioMessenger” section on page 12. If you find that the battery is always running low too soon, contact your physician. The physician will have a new battery installed. Note: When authorized personnel change the battery, they should also check the button cell. 18 Accessories Accessories You can wear your CardioMessenger in various ways: • With a clip on your belt (with or without the belt carrying case) • With the clip and the carrying strap. If you wear the CardioMessenger infrequently or do not need the clip to wear it, you can remove the clip. Press the holder and slide it downwards (away from the antenna) and remove the clip. To reattach the clip, slide the holder upwards toward the antenna. Note: When you use the clip with the carrying strap, make sure that the distance between the implant and the CardioMessenger is not less than 20 centimeters (7 inches). 19 Frequently Asked Questions Frequently Asked Questions What happens if I forget to recharge my CardioMessenger? If the CardioMessenger is not charged, it cannot receive any data from your implant and transmit them to the BIOTRONIK Service Center. There is no danger to your health, since the implant operates independently from your CardioMessenger. The data recorded by your implant will not get lost either; they will remain available to your physician during your next follow-up appointment. Just recharge the CardioMessenger in the charging station. If this does not work, inform your doctor and follow his instructions. What happens if the CardioMessenger device fails? Does this affect my implant? No, your implant will continue to function as usual. If the CardioMessenger stops working, it cannot receive any information from your implant and send it to the BIOTRONIK Service Center. The messages are still recorded by the implant and can be transmitted and evaluated during a regular follow-up examination with your doctor. Try to turn on the CardioMessenger. Additional information can be found in the ”Troubleshooting” section on page 13. If this does not work, inform your physician. Can I take my CardioMessenger with me everywhere – while I go shopping, walk, or participate in sports? Yes. You can always take your CardioMessenger with you during work or leisure activities, as long as you are not in areas where the use of cellular phones is prohibited. 20 Frequently Asked Questions The CardioMessenger can be comfortably attached to your belt and transported with and without the provided belt carrying case. You can also use a carrying strap. Additional information can be found in the ”Accessories” section on page 18. You can also carry it in a normal bag or a backpack. Please always remember that the distance between the implant and CardioMessenger should not be less than 20 centimeters (7 inches). What should I do when I want to travel? Consult your physician beforehand and inform him or her of your travel plans. You can take the CardioMessenger everywhere and plug it in wherever there is suitable supply voltage of 100 - 240 Volts at 50 - 60 Hz. You might need a country-specific adapter. A suitable cellular network is required for the Home Monitoring function. Ask your travel agent about the cellular networks in the country where you’ll be going. While en route to your destination, you must follow the instructions of the carrier, i.e., you will need to turn off the CardioMessenger when on an airplane. 21 Technical Terms and Abbreviations Technical Terms and Abbreviations Cardio Report A report informing a physician of his or her patient's current therapy status; the report is based on the data sent by the implant.
