New Replacement Message

The technical manual for the Medtronics Adapta series has a section called "New nomenclature for product battery life terms".
The terms are to become part of a new industry pacemaker standard so should apply to all makes.

The old ERI (elective replacement indicator) is now
RRT/ERI (Recommended Replacement Time.

This should make it easier to get a replacement sooner. It doesn't sound as optional as the word Elective.

Two other changes:
BOl (Beginning of life) is now BOS (Beginning of Service)
EOL (End of LIfe) is now EOS (End of Service)

I never like that End of Life..was it talking about me or the pacemaker? G(:

Forget this one

Forget this one and use the first one. I hit the enter twice. Better to keep all the comments on one post.

You know you're wired when...

You need to be re-booted each morning.
