Action Taken
The firm originally sent a "Medical Device Correction " letter to affected consignees on December 5, 2019. On November 9, 2020, a "Update - Medical Device Correction" letter was sent out to all affected customers. The purpose of the letter was to update consignees that since the initiation of the recall (12/5/2019), Medtronic had developed a fix to permanently correct the issue associated with the Mazor X Surgical system. The notice further stated that upon availability of parts, Medtronic will schedule a service visit to correct the system at no charge. Medtronic expects to initiate these service visits within the next six months. Pending completion of service to correct the Positioner Type II system, continue to follow the modified mounting instructions. The firm requested that consignees do the following: 1.
