Medtronic recalls certain implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) due to rare risk of reduced or no energy output during high voltage therapy. Affected models include DDPA2D1G COBALT XT DR MRI DF1 GOLD with specific lot numbers.
There is a rare potential for reduced- or no-energy output during high voltage (HV) therapy (typically 0-12J) in implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) and cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillators (CRT-Ds) manufactured with a specific (glassed) feedthrough, including currently available ICDs and CRT-Ds.
Medtronic is recalling certain implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) that have a rare risk of reduced or no energy output during high voltage therapy. This could potentially lead to ineffective treatment if the device fails to deliver necessary shocks during a medical emergency.
The device uses a specific glassed feedthrough that may cause reduced or no energy output during high voltage therapy. This could mean the device doesn't deliver necessary shocks during a medical emergency, potentially leading to ineffective treatment.
People with Medtronic ICDs or CRT-Ds using the specific model number DDPA2D1G COBALT XT DR MRI DF1 GOLD are affected. Those with the listed lot serial numbers are at the highest risk.
