For some patients upgraded from a LUX-Dx M301 device to a new Model M302 or M312, the new ICM device is not collecting PVC Burden data (both M302/M312) or monitoring for Bradyarrhythmia and Pause (M312 only). In addition, for these devices that are not being monitored, the LATITUDE Clarity programming screens have discrepant information, indicating that the monitoring is enabled for these features in one location and not enabled in another location.

EndoVive Safety PEG Kit; Outer Box Material Number (UPN): M00509001; Inner Box Material Number (UPN): M00509000;

Recall of kits which utilized ChloraPrep Triple Swabsticks from BD. Open or compromised seals on the sterile swabstick packaging, which could result in loss of sterility or drying of the antiseptic solution. This component is placed outside of the sterile barrier of the tray manufactured by Boston Scientific, which contains the majority of the kit components. As such, inclusion of the affected ChloraPrep Triple Swabsticks does not degrade the integrity of the other components within the PEG kit.

Boston Scientific Coyote OVER-THE-WIRE PTA Balloon Dilation Catheter, 4F, 1) 2.5mm x120mm, 150 cm, UPM/Model No. REF H74939186251210; 2) 3.5mm x120mm, 150 cm, UPM/Model No. REF H74939186351210;

Boston Scientific is initiating the removal of certain batches of Coyote" Over-the-Wire (OTW) Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) Balloon Dilatation Catheter devices due to the potential for inflation/deflation difficulty during use in the peripheral vasculature. An internal investigation found that a manufacturing process variation resulted in catheters that may not properly inflate/deflate. 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 ANT, OUS, Material Number (UPN) M635TS70040; intended to provide vascular and transseptal access for all WATCHMAN Left Atrial Appendage Closure Devices with Delivery Sys

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.

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.

IceSeed 1.5 CX S NEEDLE OUS, Cryoablation Needle, REF H7493967334100. The needles are intended to convert high-pressure gas to either a very cold Freezing application or to a warm Thawing application

Boston Scientific has identified that IceSeedTM CX needles manufactured between April 2024 and February 2025 have been programmed with DEMO settings instead of Commercial settings (see Affected Product Listing). Upon initial connection of an IceSeed CX needle to the Cryoablation System, the user will be prompted to perform the Needle Integrity and Functionality Test (NIT) per standard protocols. The affected needles perform as intended unless they are disconnected and reconnected to any channel after testing. In this case, the Cryoablation System will prompt re-execution of the NIT.
