  • 원인
    Boston scientific (bsc) is implementing a voluntary field security corrective action for the lotus ™ valve system to remove all units from the field. the specific list of upns and shipments is included in attachment 1. the bsc has recently received a larger than expected number of reports of early pin release prior to valve locking in the final position. should this occur, the valve is unable to be fully latched, which requires the valve to be re-sheathed and removed from the patient, prolonged procedure. removal of the valve was successful in all but one case; in this case, the valve was embolism and fixed in the descending aorta. all affected patients were successfully treated with another valve except for one reported case where the affected valve was removed but an aortic dissection occurred during the second valve implant and the patient died. there are no safety concerns for patients who have previously received a lotus valve, and the problem does not impact the performance of the implanted valve. it is a potential problem only during the deployment procedure itself.

    “We take a patient-first approach to assessing the applicability of every recall and communicate to regulatory bodies in all geographies where the recalled device is sold,” Boston Scientific said in a statement to ICIJ. “We have coordinated several recalls across many countries in a timely manner,” the company said, adding that it complies with all national laws, which can often vary and require different processes for reporting information or taking action on recalls. The company said it uses a rigorous and uniform process to take action on recalls and that “when we initiate a field action (e.g. recall, safety alert), every customer who has received an affected product receives a communication that includes a letter for the physician.”
