MANUFACTURER: Arkray USA, Inc., Minneapolis, MN, by letter on October
18, 2007 and October 26, 2007. Firm initiated recall is ongoing.
PRODUCT: Hypoguard Advance Micro-draw Blood Glucose Monitoring System,
Product Number : 411100, For In Vitro Diagnostic Use, (Package Contents
-Advance Micro-draw Blood Glucose Meter, 10 test Strips, Coding chip and
Control Solution (3mL), Lancing device, 10 Lancets, 3V Lithium Battery,
Logbook, User Instruction Manual, Quick Reference Guide), Recall #
Z-0458-2008
REASON: Mis-labeled/coded strips: Meter kits from this lot contain
mislabeled 10-count test strip vials. The code number printed on the
Advance Micro-draw 10-count test strip bottle is incorrect. The code
number on the vial is 867 when it should be 687. The 687-labeled code
chip contains the correct calibration information for the "867" test
strips, so the meter will function properly and give accurate results if
the "687" code chip and "867" test strips are used together. However to
minimize possibility for confusion or inconvenience by the end user,
ARKRAY has decided to recall the product.

CLASS I
MANUFACTURER: Recalling Firm: Medtronic, Inc., Rhythm Management,
Minneapolis, MN, by press release, FDA Statement and letter dated
October 15, 2007.
Manufacturer: Medtronic Puerto Rico, Inc., Villalba Pr, PR. Firm
initiated recall is ongoing.
PRODUCT:
a) Medtronic Sprint Fidelis 6930 Steroid eluting, tripolar, ventricular
lead with tined tip and right ventricular (RV) defibrillation coil
electrode. Sterile. This lead is designed for pacing, sensing,
cardioversion and defibrillation therapies, Recall # Z-0067-2008;
b) Medtronic Sprint Fidelis 6931 Steroid eluting, tripolar, screw-in,
ventricular lead with right ventricular (RV) defibrillation coil
electrode. Sterile. This lead is designed for pacing, sensing,
cardioversion and defibrillation therapies, Recall # Z-0068-2008;
c) Medtronic Sprint Fidelis 6948 Steroid eluting, quadripolar,
ventricular lead with tined tip and right ventricular (RV) / Superior
Vena Cava (SVC) defibrillation coil electrodes. Sterile. This lead is
designed for pacing, sensing, cardioversion and defibrillation
therapies, Recall # Z-0069-2008;
d) Medtronic Sprint Fidelis 6949 Steroid eluting, quadripolar, screw-in,
ventricular lead with right ventricular (RV) / Superior Vena Cava (SVC)
defibrillation coil electrodes. Sterile. This lead is designed for
pacing, sensing, cardioversion and defibrillation therapies, Recall #
Z-0070-2008
REASON: Medtronic Cardiac Rhythm Disease Management has voluntarily
suspended worldwide distribution of the Sprint Fidelis family of
defibrillation leads because of the potential for lead fractures. In
addition, the company recommends against new implants of the leads
(Sprint Fidelis Models: 6930, 6931, 6948, 6949). Medtronic, its
Independent Physician Quality Panel, and the President of the Heart
Rhythm Society (HRS), do not recommend that patients seek prophylactic
replacement of Sprint Fidelis leads, as the risks of removal or
insertion of another lead exceed the small risk to patients of a lead
fracture. Medtronic has provided patient management recommendations that
should reduce risks in the affected population and recommends that
patients with questions consult their physicians. Information is also
available for patients and physicians at www.medtronic.com/fidelis. This
decision is based on a variety of factors that, when viewed together,
indicate that suspending distribution is the appropriate action. Lead
fractures may present clinically as audible alerts, inappropriate shocks
and/or loss of output.

PRODUCT:
a) Medtronic Sprint Fidelis 6930 Steroid eluting, tripolar, ventricular
lead with tined tip and right ventricular (RV) defibrillation coil
electrode. Sterile. This lead is designed for pacing, sensing,

therapies, Recall # Z-0069-2008;
d) Medtronic Sprint Fidelis 6949 Steroid eluting, quadripolar, screw-in,
ventricular lead with right ventricular (RV) / Superior Vena Cava (SVC)
defibrillation coil electrodes. Sterile. This lead is designed for
pacing, sensing, cardioversion and defibrillation therapies, Recall #
Z-0070-2008
REASON: Medtronic Cardiac Rhythm Disease Management has voluntarily
suspended worldwide distribution of the Sprint Fidelis family of
defibrillation leads because of the potential for lead fractures. In
addition, the company recommends against new implants of the leads
(Sprint Fidelis Models: 6930, 6931, 6948, 6949). Medtronic, its
Independent Physician Quality Panel, and Bruce Lindsay, M.D., Professor
of Medicine, Director of Cardiac Electrophysiology, Washington
University School of Medicine and the President of the Heart Rhythm
Society (HRS), do not recommend that patients seek prophylactic
replacement of Sprint Fidelis leads, as the risks of removal or
insertion of another lead exceed the small risk to patients of a lead
fracture. Medtronic has provided patient management recommendations that
should reduce risks in the affected population and recommends that
patients with questions consult their physicians. Information is also
available for patients and physicians at www.medtronic.com/fidelis. This
decision is based on a variety of factors that, when viewed together,
indicate that suspending distribution is the appropriate action. Lead
fractures may present clinically as audible alerts, inappropriate shocks
and/or loss of output.

MANUFACTURER: Naviscan PET Systems, San Diego, CA, by telephone and

recall is ongoing.
PRODUCT: PEMView Software used with Naviscan PEM Flex Solo I and PEM
Flex Solo II PET Scanner, for nuclear medicine imaging, Recall #
Z-0041-2008
REASON: Naviscan has identified a potential safety issue with all
versions of PEM View Software commonly used for analyzing patient images
acquired on the PEMFIex product line. 1. The Positron Emission
Mammography Standardized Uptake Value (PEMSUV) and distance measurements
for the product mentioned above may be inaccurate if a zoomed image has
been opened, measurement tools are used, and the applet remains open
while subsequent measurements are being made on another applet (12 slice
view). This software defect results in unreliable andlor inconsistent
readings in the size, distance between lesions and mass measurement,
which could result in the physician selecting inaccurate margins for
surgery. 2. In addition, under these same circumstances the Region of
Interest (ROI) numbering might not be sequential or multiple regions
within the same image might have the same number. Duplicative numbering
could result in confusion in definition of the region of interest. 3.
When images, user defined as "Other," are acquired, the thumbnail image
is mislabeled as "LCC" (Left Craniocaudal) while the caption contains
the correct user-defined labeling. This thumbnail mislabeling could
result in reader confusion in the body part being displayed.

ZOR 1025, Recall # Z-1200-2007
REASON: The product failed electrostatic discharge testing, which could
result in product failure.
MANUFACTURER: Sendx Medical Inc., Carlsbad, CA, by e-mail
on June 6, 2007. Firm initiated recall is ongoing.
PRODUCT: ABL8O FLEX Software Version 1.10 included in the ABL8O Flex
Analyzer, Model Number 914863, Recall # Z-1201-2007
REASON: The ABL8O FLEX software version 1.10 contains errors in the
derived parameter calculation for cBase(B,ox) and cBase(Ecf,ox). These
incorrect calculations result in a mild to moderate lowering of the base
excess value, the severity depending on the concentration of hemoglobin
and the oxygen saturation in the sample. Elevated hemoglobin
concentrations have the greatest impact on this calculation error.
MANUFACTURER: Abbott Diagnostic International, Ltd,
Barceloneta, PR, by letter dated March 30, 2007. Firm initiated recall
is ongoing.
PRODUCT: Abbott AxSYM System Digoxin III Reagent Pack, Recall #

are designed to detect and terminate ventricular tachycardia (VT) and
ventricular fibrillation (VF) and provide bradycardia therapy (atrial
and ventricular pacing). Therapies
include both low- and high-energy shocks using either a biphasic or
monophasic waveform. Vitality 2 devices also offer a wide variety of
antitachycardia pacing schemes to terminate slower, more stable
ventricular tachyarrhythmias. Bradycardia pacing, including
adaptive-rate features, is available to detect and treat
bradyarrhythmias and to support the cardiac rhythm after defibrillation
therapy. Devices denoted with DR offer dual-chamber bradycardia features
(atrial and/or ventricular pacing and sensing),
and the devices denoted with VR offer single-chamber bradycardia
features (ventricular pacing and sensing), Recall # 1053-2007
h) Vitality DR HE Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (model T180).
Sterile EO. This ICD is designed to detect and terminate ventricular
tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) and provide
bradycardia therapy (atrial and ventricular pacing). Therapies include
both low- and high-eneergy shocks using either a biphasic or monophasic
waveform. Bradycardia pacing, including adaptive-rate features, is
available to detect and treat bradyarrhythmias and to support the
cardiac rhythm after defibrillation therapy. The device offers

with gaseous ethylene oxide. The Guidant Vitality 2 ICD, implantable
cardioverter defibrillators, are designed to detect and terminate
ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) and
provide bradycardia therapy (atrial and ventricular pacing). Therapies
include both low- and high-energy shocks using either a biphasic or
monophasic waveform. By using the metallic housing of the pulse
generator as an active electrode, combined with the Guidant Endotak
two-electrode defibrillation lead, energy is sent via a dual-current
pathway from the distal shocking electrode to the proximal electrode and
to the pulse generator case. Vitality 2 devices also offer a wide
variety of antitachycardia pacing schemes to terminate slower, more
stable ventricular tacharrhythmias. Recall # Z-1055-2007;
REASON: Boston Scientific has recently identified low-voltage capacitors
from a former supplier that may be subject to degradation at a low rate
of occurrence. These capacitors may cause accelerated battery depletion
and may reduce the time between elective replacement indicator (ERI) and
end of life (EOL) to less than 3 months.
