ENDOTAK RELIANCE® G Defibrillation Lead

The ENDOTAK RELIANCE G/SG leads are steroid-eluting, endocardial cardioversion/ defibrillation, and pace/sense leads available in extendable/retractable and tined models. The electrode coils are covered with GORE expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) to prevent tissue ingrowth around and between the shocking coils.

Overview

Product Information

Easy Extraction

The only defibrillation lead with GORE™ expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) covered shocking coils

  • Exclusive Design – Only defibrillation lead designed for easier lead extraction through the prevention of tissue ingrowth between and around the individual shocking coil filars
  • GORE ePTFE - Precise ePTFE pore sizes allow fluid penetration while blocking cellular infiltration.
  • Electrically Transparent – Fluid penetration through GORE ePTFE enables electrical conductivity

Enhanced Performance

ENDOTAK RELIANCE incorporates the latest in Boston Scientific lead design building upon over 18 years of ENDOTAK performance

  • Lubricious Coating - Manufactured with a proprietary surface coating to reduce silicon lead body coefficients of friction
  • Steroid Tip – The steroid eluting tip electrode is designed to lower pacing and sensing thresholds by suppressing the inflammatory response associated with implanting a pacing lead
  • Fluoroscopic Markers - Extendable/retractable models incorporate an intuitive radiopaque marker design that enables clear fluoroscopic visualization of helix extension/retraction
  • Mapping - Electrically conductive extendable/retractable helix protrudes up to 0.015 inches allowing measurement of potential electrode location pacing and sensing thresholds without helix extension into the tissue
  • Pullback – Standard 12mm pullback design has been utilized on multiple generations of ENDOTAK leads to obtain low defibrillation thresholds while optimizing post-shock sensing characteristics
  • Variety of Options - Multiple lengths are available in both extendable/retractable and tined fixation models

Demonstrated Reliability

The ENDOTAK RELIANCE family of leads have recorded over 225,000 implants worldwide to date and counting

  • Limited Lifetime Warranty(1) – All ENDOTAK RELIANCE G/SG defibrillation leads are backed by an industry leading limited lifetime warranty
  • Silicon Construction- Boston Scientific silicon leads have demonstrated time-tested reliability with over 60 million implant months
  • Redundant Insulation - All conductors are insulated in separate silicon rubber lumens, coated in polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and covered with a second layer of silicone
