Is Your Pacemaker FAULTY?! (Find Out)

If you’re one of the millions of Americans with a pacemaker, you already know how much you rely on this little machine.
It helps your heart beat stay regular… and can even save your life.
And when you mainstream doc assures you that your battery will last six or more years… and you will have plenty of warning when it needs replacing.
But for 132,000 Americans, this simply ISN’T TRUE.
Because 24 different Medtronic pacemakers models have faulty batteries.
And they are KILLING seniors just like you.
Here’s what you need to know to stay safe.
The FDA has received reports of Medtronic pacemaker batteries failing WITHOUT warning.
The devices are failing due to a crack in the device’s capacitor, which fully drains the battery without any warning to the patient or healthcare provider.
Additionally, providers are unable to communicate with the device due to battery depletion, causing the loss of pacemaker function.
Currently, one person has died from this malfunction and others have reported serious heart conditions.
All of this points out a problem with medical devices: most are never scientifically studied… ever.
The reality is, the FDA DOESN’T require clinical studies showing a device works and is safe before allowing it onto the market.
Most devices are “grandfathered” in – meaning if they replace something already on the market, then they are automatically approved.
The faulty models include:
- Azure models: W1DR01, W2DR01, W3DR01, W1SR01, W2SR01, W3SR01
- Astra models: X1DR01, X2DR01, X3DR01, X1SR01, X2SR01, X3SR01
- Percepta models: W1TR01, W1TR04, W4TR01, W4TR04
- Serena models: W1TR02, W1TR05, W4TR02, W4TR05
- Solara models: W1TR03, W1TR06, W4TR03, W4TR06
If you don’t know what kind of pacemaker you have… call your doctor’s office RIGHT NOW.
And if you have one of these devices, be sure to monitor your pacemaker’s battery and get a hold of your cardiologist ASAP.
