Code infoThe advisory population includes all models listed; however, the bounding differs by battery type: " All serialized DR-EL pacemakers and CRT-Ps from the ACCOLADE family are included in the advisory population. " ACCOLADE DR-SL and SR-SLs with a use-by-date (UBD) on or before 30 June 2025 are included in the advisory population. Model number alone will not precisely identify individual DR-SL or SR-SL devices in the advisory population.
