Medtronic recalls Percept PC implantable neurostimulators due to software failure preventing device connection. Affected units have specific model and serial numbers.
A software anomaly in the A620 Patient Programmer application was identified that results in failure to connect with the Percept PC device.
Medtronic is recalling Percept PC implantable neurostimulators because a software issue in the patient programmer prevents proper connection with the device. This could lead to improper treatment if the device isn't communicating correctly.
The software anomaly in the A620 Patient Programmer application causes the device to fail connecting with the Percept PC. This means the neurostimulator may not function properly during therapy, potentially affecting treatment effectiveness.
Patients using the Percept PC neurostimulator for conditions like Parkinson's disease or essential tremor are affected. Those with the specific model numbers and serial numbers listed in the recall are most at risk.
Check if your Percept PC device has the model number B35200 and one of the listed serial numbers (NPI706941H through NPI706957H). The device is used for deep brain stimulation therapy for conditions like Parkinson's disease.
Ensure the Percept PC device connects properly with the A620 Patient Programmer application. If connection fails, contact Medtronic for assistance.
