When pacing accuracy, easy parameter retrieval, and ease-of-use are important, this external pacemaker is the one for you. The multiprogrammable External Pacemaker Galix model PaceStar has 3 methods of tachycardia termination and a graphic display to show simultaneously all programmed parameters and intracavitary ECG signal. Pulse rate, pulse width, pulse amplitude, sensitivity, refractory period and hysteresis can be programmed to achieve the highest pacing performance. All cardiac parameters used in the pacing mode are accessible by one or two keys of the keyboard. Extensive testing on this module during production makes it very reliable on the field. It has a defibrillation, electromagnetic interference and software failure protection system. Small in size, ergonomic and lightweight, it has a lot of measurement features and statistics that make it unique in today's market.

External Pacemaker Pacing Programmable Parameters:

• Normal Rate: 30-200ppm |step:5ppm| Accuracy:+/-5%
• Pulse Amplitude: 0.2V-10V | step:0.2V | Accuracy:+/-5%
• Sensitivity: 0.2mV-12mV | step: 0.2mV | Accuracy:+/-0.2mV
• Refractory period: 200ms-400ms | step: 5ms | Accuracy:+/-1.5%
• Pulse Width: 01ms-2ms | step: 0.1ms | Accuracy: +/-0.2%
• Hysteresis: 0 - 5 - 10 - 15 - 20ppm
• Emergency: SSI(AAI/VVI) | R=70ppm | A=10V | S=2.4mV | W=1ms
• EMI Protection: auto-switching to AOO/VOO with acoustic alarm
• Defibrillation Protection: Up to 400Joules
• Software Failure Protection: auto-switching to Emergency mode
• High-rate Operation (overdrive): 120ppm-600ppm | step: 10ppm | Accuracy:+/-3%. Patient heart-rate(HR) is measured automatically and overdrive rate is set 30% higher. For safety reasons, Galix external pacemaker generates auto-quit if no key is pressed within a 20s period.
