  • Causa
    This is an update to the 'hazard alert' letter in may 2012 and subsequent update in july 2012 (tga ref.: rc-2012-rn-00391-3) and highlights the following topics: (1) key studies and patient management considerations for patients with riata and riata st silicone leads; (2) the most recent riata lead evaluation study results; and (3) the 2013 1st edition product performance report (ppr).The may 2012 'hazard alert' identified that externalised conductors can occur in riata and riata st silicone leads when an abrasion results in an outer insulation breach within the vascular or cardiac systems allowing the normally contained conductors to become visible outside the lead body. externalised conductors can be a result of relative motion of the conductor cables within the lead insulation lumen, referred to as inside-out abrasion, or from external sources of abrasion, e.G. lead-to-lead abrasion, where the outer insulation is breached.

  • Comentario del fabricante
    “We are in constant communication with regulatory agencies and competent authorities worldwide which allows us to implement global recalls or in-country communication quickly and effectively,” Abbott, which now owns St. Jude Medical told ICIJ in a statement. In addition to sending global notices to physicians worldwide, we also make sure that product advisories are available online and classification of product recalls and product advisories are determined by global regulatory bodies which can impact the timing in any given country. MD companies follow varying regulations in different countries. In come countries software is not regulated so a recall in one country related to software would not be classified as a recall or field action in another. In addition, review cycles within the regulatory process can be different in each country which can impact communication and recall timing.
