Boston Scientific AVVIGO+ Guidance System Grid Mark Overlay Defect

Boston Scientific is recalling the AVVIGO+ Multi-Modality Guidance System due to a software defect that displays an incorrect 9-grid mark overlay instead of the correct 15-grid mark overlay when used with OptiCross 18 Peripheral Imaging Catheters in Live or Record mode.

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: This is an FDA Class II recall involving a software display defect that provides incorrect reference information to physicians. The source text does not report any hospitalizations, injuries, or illnesses; the hazard is informational/operational rather than causing direct patient harm, qualifying it as a moderate-severity issue per the rubric.

Plain-English summary

Boston Scientific Corporation is recalling the AVVIGO+ Multi-Modality Guidance System due to a software anomaly affecting grid mark overlay display. When an OptiCross 18 Peripheral Imaging Catheter is connected to the system while in Live or Record mode, the system incorrectly displays a 9-grid mark overlay instead of the correct 15-grid mark overlay. The correct 15-grid overlay allows for proper reference depth settings of 14.9mm for peripheral catheters.

The software anomaly is limited to Live and Record modes. In Review mode, the system correctly displays the 15-grid mark overlay and scales the vessel image appropriately. Eight units with the following serial numbers were distributed nationwide in the US and Puerto Rico: 102899658, 103225132, 103246673, 103647916, 104043675, 104072168, 104258818, and 104512059 (Material Number H7492493120D0).

Patients and healthcare providers using this equipment should be aware of this display anomaly when using the system in Live or Record mode with OptiCross 18 Peripheral Imaging Catheters. Contact Boston Scientific for further guidance on this recall.
