Medtronic recalls certain implantable cardioverter defibrillators (CRTDs) due to rare risk of reduced energy output during high voltage therapy. Affected models include DTPA2D1PX with specific serial 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 specific implantable cardioverter defibrillators (CRTDs) that may have reduced energy output during high voltage therapy. This could potentially lead to ineffective treatment in emergencies. Affected devices have specific model numbers and serial codes.
The recalled devices use a specific glassed feedthrough that may cause reduced or no energy output during high voltage therapy (0-12J). This could result in ineffective treatment during critical cardiac events if the device fails to deliver proper shocks.
Patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) or cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillators (CRT-Ds) using the recalled model numbers are affected. Those with the specific serial numbers listed in the recall are most at risk.
Check if your device has model number DTPA2D1PX and serial numbers starting with RTH601150S or RTH601151S, or RTH603584S. These devices were sold with specific GTIN numbers.
Identify your device model number and serial numbers to confirm if it matches the recalled units.
The recalled model number is DTPA2D1PX.
Affected serial numbers include RTH601150S, RTH601151S, and RTH603584S.
