Stryker Neurovascular INZONE Detachment System recalled for premature battery drain risk
What this means
Stryker Neurovascular's INZONE Detachment System devices may experience premature battery drain, causing them to fail to power on, display faint indicators, or be unable to detach an embolization coil as intended. If a device fails during a procedure, medical staff may need to use an alternative technique to complete the intervention.
- Contact your Stryker representative if you have affected lot numbers (WMP133638–WMP136748).
- Check device battery status before use and have backup equipment available.
- Report any device failures to Stryker and the FDA.
The agency's original wording
Embolization coil detachment system devices may experience premature battery drain causing devices to: 1) Not power on; 2) Power on with faint audible and visual indicators; 3) Be unable to detach a coil as intended, which may necessitate medical intervention if the procedure must be completed with an alternative technique.
