LATITUDE Patient Management System, Models 6441*, 6442*, 6465*, 6488 (USA). There are two software applications: the programmer software and the LATITUDE remote monitoring system software. The Model 2868 Software Application is loaded onto the Model 3120 programmers. These programmers are used during in-office follow-ups. The software version affected domestically is version 1.05 for COGNIS and TELIGEN and internationally is version 2.04 for COGNIS, TELIGEN, and PUNCTUA, ENERGEN, and INCEPTA. The PUNCTUA, ENERGEN, and INCEPTA are not currently approved in the US The LATITUDE Patient Management system is intended for use to remotely communicate with a compatible Guidant or Boston Scientific pulse generator and transfer data to a central database. The LATITUDE Patient Management System software is web-based and therefore at any point in time, there is only one (1) released version for each model number. The current version is 7.1. Both the programmer software and the LATITUDE remote monitoring system software similarly display the shock lead impedance measurements.

Both the programmer software and the LATITUDE remote monitoring system software similarly display the shock lead impedance measurements.
Current Boston Scientific defibrillator systems measure shock lead impedances up to 200 ohms, and export results to the programmer and LATITUDE monitoring system via the Daily Measurements feature. A measured shock lead impedance that is greater than 125 ohms or less than 20 ohms will generate an alert message on programmer screens and a Red Alert within LATITUDE (if activated). However, the mea
