Action Taken
Starting 30-Mar-2022, Medtronic initiated an Urgent Medical Device Notice to VAD Coordinators at customer sites by regional mail and visit in order to inform them of the errors and the corrections impacting the incorrect translation in Finland and Turkey for the HVAD" System. In addition to the Urgent Medical Device Notice a patient template was provided to facilitate the VAD Coordinators in notifying their patients of the issues to the Patient Manual.
