Instructions for Use and Patient Manual for HeartWare HVAD System. Accompanies these devices: Heartware HVAD pump implant kits Models 1100, 1101…
Why was Instructions for Use and Patient Manual for HeartWare recalled?
IFU and Patient Manual updated to describe HVAD Controller Connection Verification. The labeling is being corrected to reflect the actual verified behavior of a successful connector to the controller, which is a "beep" and not "audible click", to clarify under what alarm conditions a beep will not be heard, and identify alternate confirmation methods (visual indicator) for successful connection. NOTE: this update is included in the February 2021 Urgent Medical Device Notice also covered in recalls 87456 and 87603
