Medtronic EnTrust Escudo D144DRG (OUS distribution) Product Usage: The implantable cardioverter defibrillator is intended to provide ventricular antitachycardia pacing and ventricular defibrillation for automated treatment of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias.
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Medtronic is recalling 1,867 units of the EnTrust Escudo D144DRG implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) distributed worldwide and in the US. The devices may lose high voltage and anti-tachycardia pacing therapy as the battery approaches end-of-life. In certain circumstances, the device may immediately display an End of Life Observation without first showing an Elective Replacement Indicator alert, and the remaining battery capacity may be insufficient to charge the high voltage circuits, resulting in excessive charge time and loss of therapy.
The affected devices are identified by specific serial numbers beginning with "PNR611" followed by additional digits and the letter "S." The record does not specify what action affected consumers should take in response to 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.
