Why it was recalled

Medtronic has discovered an instance in which the Intellis A710 Clinician Programmer Application (CP App) could no longer establish a session with the Implantable Neurostimulator (INS) which resulted in the inability for the clinician to adjust stimulation parameters. In the event of this issue, the patient may receive inadequate or excessive therapy and experience non-optimal pain relief.
