Abbott recalls NT2000iX RF generators with specific serial numbers due to potential capacitance failure from improper servicing. Affected units may not provide accurate results.
Certain NT2000iX RF generators were serviced using a tool that was subsequently found to be out of tolerance and therefore may not have provided accurate results for potential capacitance failure.
Abbott is recalling certain NT2000iX radiofrequency generators that could have capacitance failure due to improper servicing. This may lead to inaccurate results during medical procedures.
The hazard occurs when the generator is serviced using a tool that is out of tolerance, which can cause inaccurate capacitance measurements. This may lead to potential capacitance failure in the device, but does not cause immediate harm during normal use.
Medical professionals using Abbott NT2000iX RF generators for lesioning procedures are most at risk if the device has been serviced with an out-of-tolerance tool. Patients using these devices are not directly affected.
Check for serial numbers listed in the recall: 16930509, 16983330, 17583407, and other specific numbers provided in the notice. The device is a radiofrequency generator used for medical lesioning procedures.
