Action Taken
In the US, beginning 17-Jan-2019, Medtronic Field Representatives hand deliver an FCA Notification Letter to consignees including implanting and follow-up physicians. In consultation with an Independent Physician Quality Panel (IPQP), patient management recommendations were provided with the FCA Notification letter to ensure patient safety. Medtronic Field Representatives will hand deliver an additional Supplemental Letter with the Urgent Medical Device Recall letter to a subset of physicians with patients whose device has shown evidence of a pacing pause that is potentially related to this circuit error. Consignees will be asked to return all unused and unopened affected product to Medtronic.
