SMALLEST PACEMAKER.1 GLOBAL IMPACT.2
CELEBRATING 100,000 PATIENTS!
Micra™ is one of the world’s smallest pacemakers,1 and it’s helping more than 100,000 patients across 60 countries get their lives back2 .
Micra™ leadless pacemakers are implanted directly within the heart and do not contain leads. Less than a tenth the size of traditional pacemakers3 – comparable in size to a large vitamin capsule – Micra™ is cosmetically invisible to patients after implantation.
Patients and physicians alike are benefiting from the unique features of Micra™. Our innovative leadless pacing experience offers a streamlined and non-invasive procedure,4-5 as well as fewer complications4,5 and post-implant restrictions.6
And now, Medtronic is offering two leadless pacing options to treat a range of heart conditions.
