Boston Scientific AVVIGO+ Imaging System Grid Overlay Display Error

A software anomaly in the Boston Scientific AVVIGO+ Multi-Modality Guidance System causes an incorrect grid overlay display when used with certain catheters. The wrong overlay may lead to incorrect measurement references during imaging procedures.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This is a Class II device with a software anomaly presenting a risk of incorrect measurement guidance during medical imaging procedures, with no injuries reported. The defect affects measurement accuracy, which could impact clinical decision-making.

Plain-English summary

Boston Scientific has issued a recall of 9 units of the AVVIGO+ Multi-Modality Guidance System due to a software anomaly affecting the grid overlay display.

When an OptiCross 18 Peripheral Imaging Catheter is connected to the AVVIGO+ system in Live or Record mode, the system displays a 9-grid overlay instead of the correct 15-grid overlay. The correct 15-grid overlay allows physicians to set the proper reference depth of 14.9mm for peripheral catheters. This software anomaly could result in incorrect measurement references during imaging procedures.

The issue does not occur in Review mode, where the correct 15-grid overlay displays properly. Affected units are identified by specific serial numbers and were distributed nationwide, including Puerto Rico. Physicians using affected devices should contact Boston Scientific for updated software or device guidance.
