  • Acción
    The firm, Spectranetics, sent an "MEDICAL DEVICE RECALL" letter dated 08/07/2017 to customers via certified mail and an updated letter dated 8/17/2017 was sent on 8/23/2017. The letter described the product, problem and actions to be taken. The customers were Instructed to do the following: 1. For all Bridge inventory, we recommend physicians continue to follow product instructions to place a guide wire through the venous access site prior to the start of the procedure. Physicians may consider removing Bridge from packaging and placing the Bridge balloon over the wire prior to the start of the procedure to ensure a patent guidewire lumen if they believe the case is high risk. 2. All Bridge inventory will continue to have the potential for a guidewire lumen blockage until a solution is implemented. 3. Please bring your inventory into the case so that you have the back-up on hand, should you need it. 4. Always follow appropriate complication prevention and management protocols as it relates to patient preparation and surgical back up for lead extraction procedures. 5.
