What happened

Medtronic is recalling approximately 8,821 units of the EnTrust SingleChamber Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator with specific serial numbers distributed worldwide and throughout the United States. The devices may experience a loss of high voltage and anti-tachycardia pacing therapy as the battery approaches end-of-life. In certain circumstances, the device may skip the normal elective replacement indicator alert and instead immediately display an End of Life Observation status without warning, which can occur when there is insufficient remaining battery capacity to properly charge the high voltage circuits.

The source document does not specify what actions affected consumers should take in response to this recall.

Hazard

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.
