This was limited to Coyote OTW batches manufactured from 12Sep2025 through 13Oct2025. The processing variation has since been addressed. No other material numbers or batches are impacted by this removal.

WATCHMAN TruSeal Access System SGL, US, Material Number (UPN) M635TU70010; intended to provide vascular and transseptal access for all WATCHMAN Left Atrial Appendage Closure Devices with Delivery Syst

Boston Scientific has identified a higher likelihood of air embolism events when procedures are performed without positive pressure-controlled ventilation. According to published literature and clinical data, in percutaneous procedures requiring transseptal access to the left atrium when conscious or deep sedation is used, patients have an approximately three-times higher risk (U.S. study) of negative left atrium pressure and air ingress. This risk is especially prevalent in patients with pre-existing low left atrial pressure, hypovolemia, and partial upper airway collapse.

Carotid WALLSTENT Monorail Endoprosthesis Closed Cell Self-Expanding Stent, stent and stent delivery system. Material numbers: H7493915010240 CAROTID WALLSTENT MONORAIL 10.0-24; H7493915010310

Certain batches are being removed due to an increase in complaints received in which physicians encountered greater than anticipated resistance while attempting to withdraw the stent delivery system (SDS) from the guidewire or embolic protection device (EPD) after successful stent deployment. The most serious potential adverse health consequence is stroke. Other risks include delay to procedure, vessel injury, vessel spasm, or stent disruption/damage necessitating additional intervention.
