  • Cause
    In recent years, safety issues have been raised by regulators, including fda, regarding water system quality of temperature controllers, regardless of the manufacturer. the concern stems from the potential for bacterial growth in the water systems that can be transmitted to patients during surgery, and is likely related to the recommended water system cleaning practices and protocols employed. medtronic distributed bio-cal devices to the marketplace between 1989 and 2011. as of january 31, 2018, there have been two complaints received that suggest patients acquired a serious infection while undergoing surgery when a bio-cal device was being utilized. these complaints were received from a single customer in 2015. although a direct causal connection between the patient infection and the bio-cal could not be confirmed, the infection type was consistent with a waterborne bacterium (mycobacterium abcessus) and could have been attributed to the site’s cleaning and disinfecting of the device prior to use.

    “If our surveillance systems identify a potential performance issue, our personnel promptly evaluate the problem, including, when appropriate, conducting root cause investigations and internal testing to assess whether the product continues to meet specifications and defined performance criteria,” Medtronic told ICIJ in a statement. “In some cases, based on this evaluation, Medtronic may determine that a recall is necessary.” The company said that it communicates with healthcare providers and/or patients and provide recommendations to address such issues. Medtronic noted that these communications can include letters, emails, calls, press releases, physician notifications and social media postings, as well as informing the FDA and other regulators of the actions.
