LUX-Dx II+™ Insertable Cardiac Monitor (ICM) System

The LUX-Dx II+ ICM System (also known as a loop recorder) uses enhanced dual-stage algorithms that detect and then verify data before sending results. The LUX-Dx II+ ICM System includes enhancements that reduce false positives, prioritize clinically actionable events and encourage patient compliance.

Overview

How it works

Focused on what matters

The LUX-Dx II+ ICM System builds upon the dual-stage algorithms, exceptional signal quality and efficient workflow of the first-generation LUX-Dx™ ICM* System, with enhanced detection algorithms, nighttime programming, a unique PVC Burden algorithm and flexible monitoring capabilities.

How it works

The LUX-Dx II+ ICM builds on the strong foundation and unparalleled signal quality of the first-generation LUX-Dx loop recorder with enhanced dual-stage algorithms to help reduce false alerts. It also comes equipped with additional detection features, including the uniquely programmable Premature Ventricular Contraction (PVC) Burden alert, and advanced nighttime Pause and Brady programming.**


Why choose the LUX-Dx II+ ICM System

The LUX-Dx II+ ICM System provides meaningful alerts, clear S-ECGs, efficient workflows and seamless patient experience.

Custom devices needed for installation of LUX-Dx II Insertable Cardiac Monitor (ICM) Loop Recorder System

Intuitive insertion procedure

The LUX-Dx II+ ICM comes preloaded in its own reloadable, single-piece insertion tool. It uses a familiar and straightforward insertion procedure for reliable placement, rapid validation and confident completion.

Seamless remote programming

The LATITUDE Clarity™ Data Management System helps to increase efficiencies, enhance workflows, and fine-tune monitoring. Remote programming gives clinicians the ability to adjust LUX-Dx ICM* settings without the need to bring the patient into the office.

User-friendly patient and clinic apps

The downloadable myLUX™ Patient App allows patients to use their personal smartphone for monitoring.† Patients using the app on their own smartphone or a Boston Scientific provided mobile device, can sign up for the RhythmCARE™ Assist service, an automated service that emails or texts patients directly to help with app set up and connectivity troubleshooting. The LUX-Dx™ Clinic Assistant App allows clinicians to interrogate LUX-Dx ICMs.* Together, these empower patients and improve compliance while clinicians focus on patient care.


Physician and patient advantages

Enhanced dual-staged algorithms

The enhanced AF dual-stage algorithm adds a repeating sequential patterns in the verification step. Additionally, merging adjacent AF episodes reduces the amount of AF S-ECGs for review by 26%.1§

The Pause dual-stage algorithm includes an enhanced verification step that reduces false positives due to low signal-to-noise ratios.2§

38%

reduction in AF false positives while maintaining high relative sensitivity3§


49%

reduction in Pause false positives while maintaining 100% relative sensitivity2§

Advanced nighttime programming

The LUX-Dx II+ ICM is the only ICM that can detect and differentiate specified nighttime Brady and Pause events for review.** Nighttime programming was found to reduce 75% of Brady S-ECG episodes and 57% of Pause S-ECG episodes for review.1§

75%

 fewer Brady S-ECG episodes for review1§


57%

fewer Pause S-ECG episodes for review1§

Meaningful alerts

The LUX-Dx II+ ICM  is the first and only ICM to offer a PVC Burden algorithm with unique programming and alert configurations.** This novel dual-stage algorithm detects singlet, couplet and triplet PVC Burden sequence types to provide a daily PVC burden value and trend. The PVC burden algorithm demonstrated a 100% PPV and 84% sensitivity for identifying patients with PVC burdens ≥ 10%.4¶

Flexible patient monitoring

Once activated, the LUX-Dx II+ ICM sends data directly to the LATITUDE Clarity Data Management System via the myLUX Patient App, where alerts and comprehensive data are just a click away.

Advanced tools 
Provides clear S-ECGs with advanced zoom and annotation tools to help save time and enhance confidence in data assessment.

Customizable options 
Improves efficiency with multiple options for reporting and EMR integration, allowing clinics to tailor the system to their workflow.

One-way patient messages 
Sends read-only messages to the myLUX Patient App, helping to save time in confirming data review and reducing patient anxiety.

Remote programming 
Enables remote adjustments to accelerate critical decision-making and fine-tune detection parameters without the need to bring the patient into the clinic.

Organized design and navigation 
Simplifies system learning and usage, reducing clicks and helping clinicians conduct thorough reviews more methodically.

Seamless patient experience

The LUX-Dx ICM System* offers a choice for patients to use their own smartphone with the downloadable myLUX patient app for monitoring. Patients using the app on their personal smartphone or a Boston Scientific provided mobile device, can sign up for a supplemental support service called RhythmCARE Assist. This automated service notifies the patient via email and/or text message if they need to set up the app or when connectivity issues arise. The messages provide written and video educational content to guide the patient through reconnecting.

Insertion procedure

Intuitive ICM insertion procedure

 
  1. Cut 
    While applying tension on the skin away from the incision location, cut at the intended angle until the blade is fully inserted. Technique may vary based on clinician preference and patient assessment.
  2. Tunnel 
    At the incision location, fully insert the tunneling portion of the insertion tool parallel to the skin approximately 8 mm under the surface.
  3. Rotate
    Rotate the insertion tool 180° in either direction, creating a pocket for the device to be inserted.
  4. Pull back
    Hold the base of the insertion tool to the incision site and pull back the plunger until you feel a hard stop or until the blue line is visible. This ensures the device has dropped down into the channel.
  5. Insert 
    Lower the body of the tool close to the skin. Firmly hold the base of the insertion tool at the incision site while pushing the plunger in completely.
  6. Remove 
    Pinch the incision site to hold the device in place while removing the insertion tool.
