Medtronic EnTrust Dual Chamber Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator with Atrial and Ventricular Therapies and RapidRead Telemetry, D154ATG Product Usage: The device indicated for use in ICD patients with atrial tachyarrhythmias, or who are at significant risk of developing atrial tachyarrhythmias.
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Medtronic is recalling approximately 8,890 EnTrust Dual Chamber implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) due to a potential safety issue. The devices may experience loss of high voltage and anti-tachycardia pacing therapy as their batteries approach end-of-life. Specifically, under certain circumstances, the device may jump directly to an End of Life alert without first displaying a replacement indicator alert, and the remaining battery may not have enough capacity to properly charge the high voltage circuits needed to deliver therapy.
The recalled devices are identified by specific serial numbers beginning with "PNR" and have been distributed worldwide, including throughout the United States. The record does not specify what action affected consumers should take regarding this recall.

Medtronic has become aware of a potential for loss of high voltage and anti-tachycardia pacing therapy in EnTrust and Escudo implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) as they near elective replacement indicator (ERI) voltage. Under certain circumstances, the device may display an immediate End of Life (EOL) Observation with no prior ERI alert. Though no ERI alert is triggered, there may not be enough remaining battery capacity to charge the high voltage circuits, resulting in an excessive charge time EOL Observation, leading to a loss of high voltage and anti-tachycardia pacing therapy.
