Maximo II Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator
Overview
Maximo® II ICD features a defibrillator function to treat fast heartbeat and pacemaker therapy to detect and correct slow or irregular heart rhythms. Because Maximo II is wireless, routine follow-ups can be scheduled to occur automatically and without your help—even while you are sleeping. Your doctor then receives notices of your condition and the status of your device.

Features
Medtronic Vision 3D™ Portfolio – Provides the most comprehensive family of wireless pacing, ICD and CRT-D devices. Allows you access to Medtronic’s unique feature options, which will help meet your individual therapy goals.
PainFREE™ Therapy – Delivers painless electrical pacing pulses called Antitachycardia Pacing (ATP), which may eliminate the need for a shock.
Conexus® Wireless Telemetry – Lets your doctor remotely check your heart device without your assistance. Your device information can be collected and transmitted automatically, even while you are sleeping.
Medtronic CareAlert® Notifications – Monitoring feature set by your doctor. CareAlert Notifications can signal your clinic if your heart condition changes or if your device requires attention (for example, due to decreased battery power).
Managed Ventricular Pacing® (MVP®) – Provides the best pacing therapy available to reduce unnecessary right ventricle pacing. MVP allows your heart to beat naturally on its own, more often.

This allows your doctor to see how well your device and medications are working together, and how your heart function may change over time.
