On May 12, 2006 Guidant Corporation in association with the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) issued a recall of a large number of implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) and cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillators (CRT-Ds).  The recall affected the popular CONTAK RENEWAL® 3 and 4 defibrillators.

Guidant Corporation Comments: The most common way to implant an ICD or CRT-D is subcutaneously (just under the skin). But sometimes, a doctor may instead choose to implant a device subpectorally (under the chest muscle). A doctor may also choose to implant the device facing either toward or away from the ribs. There are good reasons for each of these options, and you can be assured that your doctor has chosen the best option for your individual needs.

The safety information in this letter applies only to those VITALITY HE and CONTAK RENEWAL 3 and 4 devices that are implanted subpectorally and facing toward the ribs—a very rare position. In some cases, devices implanted in this way may malfunction. That is, the device may be unable to deliver appropriate therapy or unable to communicate with the programmer. In addition, your doctor may see a warning on the programmer screen when he or she checks your device. Keep in mind that the large majority of patients who have VITALITYHE or CONTAK RENEWAL 3 or 4 devices are not at risk for this problem.

On May 12, 2006 Guidant Corporation in association with the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) issued a recall of a large number of defibrillators, including the popular CONTAK RENEWAL 4 AVT defibrillators.

Guidant Corporation Comments: Some of these ICDs and CRT-Ds that were manufactured around the March 2005 timeframe have been found to contain a flawed component that causes the device battery to run out before it should. These components are from a single batch from a single supplier, so not all devices are affected. If your device is affected, it will continue to function normally, but may need to be replaced sooner than expected.
