- On September 20, 2018, Maquet/Getinge issued a press release. On September 24, 2018 and on September 28, 2018, Maquet/Getinge issued URGENT MEDICAL DEVICE CORRECTION notices along with an Instructions for Use Addendum to customers. On October 23, 2018 a modified version of the Urgent Medical Device Correction Letter and response form was sent to 23 new U.S. consignees who received Cardiosave IABP devices after the ship-hold was released.
