LivaNova USA Inc - VNS Therapy, Sentiva, - Class 2 Recall

The LivaNova VNS Therapy System, used for Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS), consists of an implantable VNS Therapy generator, lead, and external programming system used to change stimulation settings. The generator is an implantable, multi-programmable pulse generator that delivers electrical signals to the vagus nerve through the lead. The generator is housed in a hermetically sealed titanium case and is powered by a single battery. Electrical signals are transmitted from the generator to the vagus nerve by the lead. The lead and the generator make up the implantable portion of the VNS Therapy System. The VNS Therapy Programming System includes a computer pre-installed with VNS Therapy programming software and a programming wand. The physician uses the programming system to read and change generator settings. The Model 1000 Generator was commercially approved for distribution in the U.S. on October 3, 2017 via PMA P970003/S210.
