Medtronic recalls certain implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) and cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillators (CRT-Ds) with model DTMA1D4 due to rare potential for reduced or no energy output during high voltage therapy. This may affect device function.
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 specific models of implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) and cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillators (CRT-Ds) that have a rare risk of reduced or no energy output during high voltage therapy. This could potentially cause the device to fail when needed.
The device uses a glassed feedthrough that can sometimes cause reduced or no energy output during high voltage therapy (typically 0-12J). This is a rare issue that may affect the device's ability to function properly during critical medical events.
People with Medtronic CRTD DTMA1D4 CLARIA MRI US DF4 models who have the device implanted. The risk is rare and only affects specific units.
Check your device's model number, which is DTMA1D4. Look for the lot/serial numbers listed in the recall: RPC203306H through RPC209999H (the full list is provided in the recall notice).
Identify your device model by checking the label on the device or the packaging. The affected models are DTMA1D4.
Compare your device's serial number (lot number) to the list of affected serial numbers provided in the recall notice.
This is a rare issue that may cause reduced or no energy output during high voltage therapy. The risk is low and only affects specific units.
Check your device's model number (DTMA1D4) and compare your serial number to the list of affected serial numbers provided in the recall notice.
The recall does not specify a remedy, so contact Medtronic directly for guidance on next steps.
