Manufacturer Reason
for Recall
The FHC Depth Stop Adapter may cause damage to the lead and stylet when the depth stop screw is over-tightened onto the lead. This damage can manifest as low impedances or a short circuit between one or multiple electrode pairs in the lead, and has resulted in the need to remove and replace the implanted lead intraoperative or in a follow-up procedure.
