Boston Scientific AVVIGO+ guidance system recalled for grid overlay display error

Boston Scientific's AVVIGO+ guidance system is recalled because a software glitch causes an incorrect grid overlay display when used with an OptiCross 18 catheter. The correct overlay appears in Review mode, and no patient injuries have been reported.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: FDA Class II recall with no reported illnesses or injuries. The issue is a software display anomaly affecting grid overlay visualization; the system functions correctly in Review mode, mitigating the risk of incorrect reference depth calculations.

Plain-English summary

Boston Scientific Corporation is recalling 124 units of the AVVIGO+ Multi-Modality Guidance System distributed nationwide in the United States and Puerto Rico. The recall addresses a software anomaly affecting the display of the grid mark overlay.

When an OptiCross 18 Peripheral Imaging Catheter is connected to the AVVIGO+ system in Live or Record mode, the grid mark overlay displays incorrectly as a 9-grid pattern instead of the proper 15-grid pattern. The 15-grid overlay is used to set the correct 14.9mm reference depth for peripheral catheter imaging. The system displays the correct 15-grid overlay and properly scaled vessel images when operating in Review mode.

No patient illnesses or injuries have been reported. Facilities using affected units should contact Boston Scientific for information about the recalled serial numbers and recommendations for device operation or replacement.
