VITALITY AVT    

The Vitality AVT model is designed to provide atrial therapy in order to prevent potentially fatal heart conditions. This particular model is designed for thin persons for whom a smaller implant device will be less noticeable. Guidant believes that 21,000 of these devices may suffer from a memory error that can prevent the device from delivering necessary therapy should a critical situation develop. Although only two incidences of failure in this have been reported, Guidant has recommended that all patients with this device should report to their doctor to receive an important programming update.
