Reason for Recall
The dual chamber INGENIO family pacemakers or cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemakers (CRT-Ps) may initiate Safety Mode later in device life (i.e., prior to reaching the Explant battery indicator) when the device's battery exhibits high internal impedance. This latent battery condition puts a device at risk for system resets to occur due to temporary high-power consumption related to telemetry attempts and subsequent reversion to Safety Mode to maintain back-up pacing. Although therapy is still provided when a device is in Safety Mode, replacement is required. - Only dual chamber INGENIO family pacemakers and CRT-Ps built with the Extended Life (EL) battery are included within this advisory population
