  • Cause
    Medtronic has identified that a small subset of 2090 programmers have an incorrect software configuration for the country in which that are physically located. when a programmer is manufactured, it is configured for the region in which it will be located. in this way, medtronic is able to differentiate the timing of software updates across different regions of the globe. through the investigation of this issue, a small subset of programmers have been determined to be physically located in a country outside of the region for which they are configured.
  • Action
