Description
Medstorm Adult Radiolucent Leads-Out Electrode - Physio-Control, Part 16242. Indicated for use in external pacing, defibrillation and monitoring applications as a non-sterile, disposable device for single patient use only.
Reason
The "leads out" connector had bent pins which would not allow connection to the Medtronic Physio Control Defibrillator cable during a product demonstration.
Action
The firm sent a recall notice to their distributors on 12/3/2008 asking them to quarantine product and return it to HeartSync. The letter stated that customers' current inventory would be exchanged for new product. Customers were to call 1-800-828-4681 to provide the necessary information.
