NEW RECALL: Medtronic's Sprint Fidelis Leads (used with implantable defibrillators)

Were Medtronic Inc's Sprint Fidelis leads used to attach your defibrillator to your heart?

Medtronic, Inc. has issued a recall of its Sprint Fidelis leads due to a flaw whereby they could break or erode.

The FDA explained, "In the infrequent circumstance where a lead actually breaks, or 'fractures,' the lead may send false signals that cause inappropriate defibrillator shocks, or therapies such as pacing or shocks may not be delivered."

In view of this recall, you should find out whether Medtronic's Sprint Fidelis leads were used to implant your defibrillator?

Weitz & Luxenberg is currently representing men and women who have been seriously injured by the recalled Medtronic Sprint Fidelis Models: 6930, 6931, 6948, and 6949. Learn more about our Medtronic practice. Time may be running out to file your suit. Complete the form below to get started.
