Event Description
|
It was reported that this device declared code 1003 indicative of voltage too low to project the remaining longevity before it was implanted.As result the device could not be implanted.The information was sent to boston scientific technical services (ts) to be analyzed.No patient involvement.

Event Description
|
This device recorded a pre-implant 1003 code indicative of battery voltage too low for the projected remaining capacity.There is no patient involvement at the time of this issue; therefore, there is no risk of serious injury, compromised critical therapy or death.Trend inclusion has no impact on the reporting decision.

Manufacturer Narrative
|
Upon receipt at our post market quality assurance laboratory, it was noted that the device was returned in the original sterile packaging.An evaluation of the device was performed.Review of the device memory confirmed that a low voltage alert, code 1003, was recorded and that the device recorded low temperature readings prior to setting the low voltage alert.If this model device is stored in environments where temperatures can drop below the recommended storage temperature, battery voltage readings that are low enough to set a low voltage alert may result.This appears to be the case with this device.
