Product Liability: Medtronic Sprint Fidelis Lead Wire

Medtronic Sprint Fidelis Heart Lead Wire

THE SIMPLE FACTSTM...On October 15, 2007, Medtronic issued a statement in which it suspended the sale and shipment of its heart lead wire products and requested that all unused heart lead wire products - 6930, 6931, 6948 and 6949 - be returned immediately to Medtronic.

The reason for the recall of the Sprint Fidelis heart lead wire products was due to reports of several patient deaths associated with the heart lead wires. Supposedly, the heart lead wires are prone to cracking and potentially life-threatening consequences such as firing repeatedly, unnecessary shocks and/or not sending an electrical jolt when needed.

Some of the warning signs may include:

  1. excessive shocks
  2. lightheadedness
  3. fainting
  4. palpitations

If you experience any problems - lightheadness, palpitations, multiple shocks or fainting - with your heart device, please contact a doctor immediately.
