Product description

Boston Scientific AVVIGO+ Multi-Modality Guidance System, AVVIGO + MOB SYSTEM US; the system utilizes an interactive display to provide physicians with physiologic, intravascular and/or intracardiac anatomical information. The system can provide various modalities which includes intravascular ultrasound (IVUS). When used with a peripheral vascular imaging catheter, the system utilizes the IVUS modality for ultrasound examination of intravascular pathology.

Reason for recall

Boston Scientific has received reports indicating the grid mark overlay on the cross-sectional view did not present correctly when an OptiCross 18 Peripheral Imaging Catheter was connected to the AVVIGO+ Multi-Modality Guidance System while in either Live or Record mode. The Boston Scientific investigation determined that, due to a software anomaly, a 9-grid mark overlay is incorrectly displayed during Live mode when AVVIGO+ is connected to an OptiCross 18 Peripheral Imaging Catheter. Note that the correct overlay display for this catheter is the 15-grid mark overlay, which allows for a reference depth setting of 14.9mm for peripheral catheters. This software anomaly is limited to Live or Record mode. In Review mode, the correct 15-grid mark overlay is displayed, and the vessel image is correctly scaled to the appropriate size.
