Why these products were recalled

Medtronic is updating the Micra Instructions for Use (IFU) and the Micra Implant Procedure Tip Card to include specific information on the removal of the tether to release the Micra Pacemaker from the Micra Delivery System during implant.

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
