  • Action
    Medtronic sent an Urgent Medical Device Recall letter dated October 5, 2016, to all affected customers to inform them that Medtronic has identified the potential for an issue with a specific set of lot numbers of Medtronic Neurovascular products as noted where the PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) coating could delaminate and separate from the delivery wire. Customers are instructed to complete the attached customer confirmation certificate and fax it to Medtronic at (949) 434-5020 to the attention of Neurovascular Quality. On October 14, 2016, Medtronic announced that it has notified customers of a voluntary recall of certain lots of its Pipeline embolization device, Alligator retrieval device and X-Celerator hydrophilic guidewire. The recall also includes the stylet containing UltraFlow flow directed micro catheters and Marathon flow directed micro catheters. This voluntary recall is being conducted due to the potential separation and detachment of the polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) coating on parts of these devices. Should the PTFE separate from the delivery wire or stylets, PTFE particulate could enter the blood stream of the patient. PTFE in the blood stream, based on the size and quantity, could lead to a thromboembolic event. Customers were asked to complete the attached Customer Confirmation Certificate and fax it to Medtronic at 1-949-434-5020 to the attention of Neurovascular Quality. Customers with questions were instructed to contact their Medtronic representative. On 1/12/17, an Urgent Medical Device Recall letter was sent to expand the recall to include additional lots.

    “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.
