Scuba diving

Hi, had my Sofina KORA 250 implanted June this year. Does anybody know if this device has been pressure tested, and if so, where I can find the data to satisfy my travel insurance company and dive shop. Thanks.

Hi

 

I have a Sorin pacemaker, and I called the manufacturer's technical support to find out. It was the easiest way to get the real goods. Mine is good for 4 atmospheres.

Thanks El Gordo, I guess my question was really about whether it was possible to dive with the device. I will contact the manufacturer as you suggest. Regard.

Most of them are rated to 4 atm which is more than enough for recreational diving. The manufacturer can tell you about yours in particular.

Thanks Tracey_E. Am now in contact with distributor.

You know you're wired when...

You have a $50,000 chest.
