RENEWAL 4 AVT   

Guidant has issued a recall of 21,000 Renewal 4 AVT devices due to a potentially fatal manufacturing defect in the programming of the memory systems of some devices. This flaw prevents the device from monitoring and correcting dangerous heart conditions. There have been two reported failures of these devices, although no fatalities or serious injuries have resulted from this malfunction. Anyone with one of these devices should report to their doctor immediately for a program readjustment that will hopefully reverse the problem.
