Where it was sold

Why it was recalled

A manufacturing issue may cause the silicone tubing wall thickness of vagus nerve stimulation leads to be less than the design specification. If the tubing becomes completely breached, the patient may experience discomfort or pain due to delivery of stimulation to an unintended location. If the inner lead conductor is exposed to body fluids the lead may break causing loss of therapy.

This product could cause temporary or reversible health problems — stop using it.
