Including Normal Battery Depletion – This curve includes devices that have reached at least 80% of expected longevity. This curve is most representative of clinical performance and how long the device will last.
Excluding Normal Battery Depletion – This is the malfunction free survival curve.
Longevity estimates based on the following device usage.

EOL Indicator
From the point that the RRT is set, the pacemaker will operate for approximately three months for typical pacemaker configurations during the normal operating life.
Recommended Replacement (RRT)
Battery voltage less than or equal to 2.73V on 3 consecutive daily automatic measurements.
