Proven Longevity.
Predictable Performance.

INGEVITY+ pacing leads are 6F (2.0 mm) steroid-eluting, endocardial/interventricular septal pace/sense leads intended for chronic right atrium and/or right ventricle 
or left bundle branch area application.

Product details

 
The INGEVITY+ pacing lead demonstrated 95.6% implant success with left bundle or left septal capture.1

Why choose INGEVITY+


Proven lead performance in a new application.

Low and stable pacing threshold with INGEVITY+ for left bundle branch area (LBBA) implants similar to right ventricle apical locations.
Average pacing capture threshold of 0.94V for INGEVITY+ at 3 month
Mean pacing capture thresholds were 0.94V @ 0.4 ms at 3 months for LBBA2
98.2% of LBBA pacing thresholds were less than or equal to 2V with INGEVITY+
98.2% of LBBA thresholds were less than or equal to 2V at 0.4ms2
97.6% of LBBA pacing leads showed no threshold rise over 1V at 3 months
97.6% of LBBA leads did not have a threshold rise >1V at 3 months2


Tested and proven lead design, expanded to LBBAP

400 million cycle distal tip fatigue testing for use in LBBAP 
  • The stylet design INGEVITY+ pacing lead allows for precise positioning including continuous pacing and monitoring of electrical measurements during lead body rotations3
  • Outer insulation has more than 20 years of experience with Boston Scientific pacing leads and continues to be durable even when exposed to rough simulated LBBAP use3,4,5
  • Designed with 3 robust layers of insulation between conductors6 
  • Zero conductor fractures demonstrated under simulated use conditions with extensive preconditioning, INGEVITY+ leads in LBBA positions met a minimum of a 10-year survivability similar to right ventricular apical pacing4


Enhanced Design

200% tensile strength increase with enhanced design changes.

Improved inner coil design

The traditional tri-filar inner coil of INGEVITY+ improves the torque transmission of the inner coil and allows for removal of the ETFE covering. The traditional tri-filar inner coil of INGEVITY+ improves the torque transmission of the inner coil and allows for removal of the ETFE covering.

Experience predictable performance with low and consistent turn counts:

  • In tortuous bends
  • In atrial placements
  • When repositioning the lead
  • Across a wider breadth of physician techniques
Coupler and terminal pin joints in INGEVITY+ lead, showcasing enhanced mechanical strength and durability

Improved joint design

  • Incorporated joint design principles from 
the RELIANCE™ family of leads, which have multi-filar coils and proven performance
  • Reduces potential stress concentrations which could cause conductor fracture if the coil was over-torqued or severely bent in a 
fatigue condition
  • Strengthens the joint construction so INGEVITY+ can withstand extraction forces over 200% more than the previous generation

Technical specifications

INGEVITY+ leads utilize an IS-1 bipolar connector and are compatible with IS-1 Fixation and helix locking tool1. The tip incorporates an IROX™ (iridium oxide) coating on the tip electrode2. The electrically active helix allows for continuous pacing on the stylet with lead body rotations3. INGEVITY+ can be safely delivered by Boston Scientific’s portfolio of Site Selective Pacing Catheters.4​
