Patient-Activated Report - The magnet effect must be 
programmed “synchronous” if the [Patient Report] function is 
activated. 
Not for Conclusive Diagnosis - Because not all information 
available in the implant is being transmitted, the data 
transmitted by Home Monitoring should be evaluated in 
conjunction with other clinical indicators (i.e., in-office 
follow-up, patient symptoms, etc.) in order to make a proper 
diagnosis. 
Frequency of Office Follow-Ups When Using Home 
Monitoring
 - The use of Home Monitoring does not replace 
regular follow-up examinations.  When using Home 
Monitoring, the time period between follow-up visits may not 
be extended. 
 
The implant’s Home Monitoring functions can be used for the 
entire operational life of the implant (prior to ERI) or for shorter 
periods, such as several weeks or months.

When ERI mode is reached, this status is transmitted.  
Further measurements and transmissions of Home 
Monitoring data are no longer possible. 
2.17.1 Transmission of Information 
The implant transmits information with a small transmitter, which 
has a range of about 6 feet (2 meters).  The patient’s implant 
data are sent to the corresponding patient device in configurable 
periodic intervals.  The transmissions may also be activated by 
the patient with the application of a magnet over the implant and 
by certain cardiac events, as programmed.  The types of 
transmissions are discussed in Section 2.17.4. 
The minimal distance between the implant and the patient device 
must be 6 inches (15 cm).
