- Reason
- Medtronic has identified an issue related to installation or removal of the Lead Integrity Alert software in EnTrust(R) and EnTrust(R) Escudo" defibrillators. In those devices only, installation or removal of LIA will inadvertently turn off two audible patient alerts.
- Root cause
- Software design
- Action
- Between November 24 and December 9, 2008 US CRDM are responsible to hand deliver the consignee letter, a Medtronic "Urgent Patient Management Information," dated November 2008, to impacted physicians to make them aware of the issue and continue to promote and install LIA (by using the new LIA tipcard). For any physician listed that a confirmation sheet was not received by end of day, December 9, 2008, the letter was mailed to the physician on Dec 10, 2008. The letter described the issue and the product involved. The letter also gave recommendations and informed consignees in regard to a future update to the LIA software for EnTrust devices.
