Medtronic recalls ICD COBALT XT HF QUAD OUS model DTPA2QQG due to rare risk of reduced or no energy output during high voltage therapy. Affected units have specific serial numbers and GTIN.
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 a specific model of implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) that may have a rare issue with high voltage therapy energy output. This could potentially lead to ineffective treatment if the device fails during critical medical events.
The device uses a specific glassed feedthrough that may cause reduced or no energy output during high voltage therapy (0-12J). This could lead to ineffective treatment if the device fails during critical medical events.
People with implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) or cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillators (CRT-Ds) using the recalled model. Those with specific serial numbers and GTIN are most at risk.
