Reason for recall
The firm discovered a risk of loss of Neuromodulation therapy due to exposure of the IPG to monopolar electrosurgical devices (ESU) during medical procedures.
A sterility recall means a product that must be sterile, such as an injection or eye drop, may be contaminated. Using a non-sterile product can cause serious infection.
Product as listed by the FDA
Infinity 7, Implantable Pulse Generator, REF 6662, Rx only, STERILE EO Product Usage: The Infinity IPG is an electronic device designed to be connected to one or two extensions. It is powered by a hermetically sealed battery within a titanium case and uses microelectronic circuitry to generate constant-current electrical stimulation. The IPG is conductive on all sides, which allows the IPG case (also called a can) to be used as an anode for monopolar stimulation. The IPG communicates wirelessly with system programmers and controllers, and IPGs are available in small and large sizes to accommodate different power needs.
