Action Taken
On 02/15/2025, the firm communicated with the implanting/following physicians via phone call and in-person meeting. Customers were informed that a subset of Aveir Leadless pacemaker devices manufactured in January 2025 had experienced a departure from manufacturing baseline parameters due to incorrect equipment set-up. As a result of this issue, the glass insulator separating the battery from the electronics may have microcracks that could lead to the reduction in longevity of the device and loss of functionality. Customers are instructed to: Recognizing that each patient requires individual consideration, Abbott recommends: "Consideration of device retrieval and/or replacement (with a leadless or transvenous device), particularly if your patient is pacemaker dependent. "Follow-up actions should consider evaluation of individual patient needs, disease states, and co-morbidities. "Timing of device replacement should depend on the patient s clinical characteristics. Customer were also instructed to acknowledge the customer notification by returning Acknowledgement Form to crmcommercialcompliance@abbott.com Additional notification of customers were on 02/15/2025 and 02/27/2025 via email.
