Reason for recall

Due to Indirect Decompression System devices exhibiting a potential for weld breakage at the spindle cap-to-main body interface. As a result of the separation of the spindle cap from the main body it may prevent proper deployment of the device during implantation.

Device recalls are issued when a component, software or design fault could cause the device to fail or give wrong readings. Many are corrections applied in the field rather than physical returns.
