Medtronic is stopping the distribution and sale of the HVAD System due to a growing body of observational clinical comparisons that shows a higher frequency of neurological adverse events and mortality associated with the system when compared to other commercially available left ventricular assist devices, as well as complaints that the internal pump may delay or fail to restart.

Arcos Proximal Cone Bodies could potentially exhibit chatter in the inner taper fretting corrosion and device failure in vivo leading to surgical intervention

Bezel repair parts used, not by the original manufacturer, to service and repair infusion pump modules, may over time experience cracking or separation of the posts from the bezel. The separation of one or more bezel repair part posts may result in free flow, over infusion, under infusion or interruption of infusion.

Excess nylon flash on the clip.

There is a potential for internal leaks within catheters.

Medical devices intended for use in a healthcare facility were distributed to residential customers and may be in use in a home environment. The product s labeling accurately identifies the correct use environment, but home users may not be aware of or fully understand these instructions intended for healthcare professionals

Due to failure to acquire pre-market clearance for its high resolution tomographic/biomicroscope imaging device (Model 6000) prior to commercializing the device.

There is a potential that 7F sheaths are packaged as 10F sheaths.

The balloon protective sheath may potentially be contaminated with a foreign material left over from the manufacturing process. The contaminant may transfer over from the sheath to the balloon.
