Boston Scientific, EMBLEM S-ICD Programmer Model 3200 Programmer.

Published February 15, 2017 · Recall initiated: January 12, 2017

Status when published: Terminated — openFDA updates weekly, so this field may not reflect the current status. Always confirm with the official notice.

What's the hazard

There is a potential for radio frequency (RF) interference to alter wireless communication from a programmer, which in rare instances may cause an S-ICD to perform an unintended command. This behavior can only occur during an active, in-clinic interrogation/programming session with the Model 3200 S-ICD programmer. There is no risk of this behavior occurring when the LATITUDE Patient Management System communicates with an S-ICD in an ambulatory setting.
