  • Cause
    When certain therapy parameters are programmed on the itrel 3 device platform, the use of the cycling feature and the soft start/soft stop feature may result in a negative impact on battery longevity. this impact on longevity is currently not accounted for by longevity estimation tools (including 8870 software and the system eligibility battery longevity (sebl) manual) and may result in an earlier than predicted explant. engineering analysis has shown this to be an issue with the interstim ii (3058) device; however, all itrel 3 platform devices will be included in the scope of the investigation due to product design and potential root cause discussed in section 3.2.
  • Action
    Medtronic is updating the labelling of the devices to include new information on cycling and its effect on battery longevity.
