FDA Determined Cause 2 | Software design |
Action | LivaNova issued a communication to physicians treating patients implanted with the products in scope in the form of a customer letter beginning July 24, 2017.
The letter instructs users to do the following:
1. In order to mitigate the potential risks associated with both triggering events (ESD at implant or MRI scan), LivaNova recommends physicians follow the patients at the periodicity already stated in the implant manual, especially:
" Before the patient is discharged and at each subsequent follow-up, it is advisable to check the battery status and the occurrence of system warnings;
" It is recommended that a routine follow-up examination be done one month after discharge, and then every three months until the device nears the replacement date. |
