The manufacturer has identified 14 reports over the last 30 years describing delayed spinal cord compression due to an epidural mass around a medtronic scs lead. all patients had neurological deficits and required surgical intervention to remove the mass. histologically, the epidural masses consisted of reactive tissue (granulomatous and/or fibrous tissue). the reported time to onset of neurological symptoms after lead implant ranged from weeks to 17 years. the severity ranged from muscle weakness to progressive quadriparesis. in several of the cases, only one side of the body was affected. the appearance of neurological symptoms was often preceded by a loss of therapy effect. the reported outcomes in these patients were full recovery (9 reports), permanent impairment (2 reports), and unknown (3 reports). there has not been a report of a patient death associated with this issue.

Medtronic is writing to inform you of a modification we are making to improve cybersecurity of device programmers by changing how the programmers are updated with new software. currently, the medtronic carelink™ 2090 and carelink encore™ 29901 programmers receive new software from one of two routes: using the usb port or using a network connection via the software distribution network, or sdn. the sdn is a worldwide network that allows the download of new or updated software to the carelink 2090 and carelink encore 29901 programmers via the internet. beginning october 11th, 2018, medtronic will be disabling the sdn for programmer updates and will rely solely on the usb update method. if you currently use the usb updating process, there will be no change to your workflow.

Causa
Medtronic identified an issue that may occur with all models of claria mri™ crt-d surescan™ and amplia mri™ crt-d surescan™ devices. the issue is a loss of lv pacing that occurs following a specific device programming sequence. whenever a patient with adaptivcrt* enabled (shipped setting) is subsequently programmed to mvp (managed ventricular pacing) mode and then re-programmed back to ddd or dddr, adaptivcrt is not re-enabled. when this programming sequence occurs, lv pacing is not delivered, despite parameters indicating adaptivcrt is enabled. this will result in rv only pacing which may be undesirable for the patient. lv pacing will remain disabled until a specific programming sequence is manually completed. * this feature adjusts crt parameter values automatically while the patient is ambulatory. if adaptivcrt is programmed to adaptive bi-v and lv, the feature can switch automatically between biventricular pacing and lv-only pacing.
