This is caused by a random lock-up of the measurement system hardware that may result in an incorrect battery voltage reading of zero. This issue does NOT impact battery lon |
FDA Determined Cause 2 | Component design/selection |
Action | The firm, Medtronic, sent an "Important: Medical Device Correction" letter dated April 2011 to its customers. The letter described the product, problem, and actions taken. Medtronic informed the customers that this issue does NOT impact battery longevity and does NOT require device explant. Currently, the device can be reset to normal operation by a Medtronic representative. Reset devices are no more likely to experience a recurrence of this issue.
