yep - lets go with single center 100 lead registry vs. 4000 lead multi center study

that always works

 

Do the right thing and recall this lead. According to a paper at HRS 2015, it fails 14% of the time at 52 months, and at HRS 2016, another paper said that it failed at the same rates as Riata, a recalled lead. Pull the lead, do the right thing, otherwise you're gonna stay the joke that you always have been

 

Needs to be recalled. High failure rates with externalized conductors at every change out

 

i hope for patient to be wrong. but something will be done by Biotronik or has to be done immediately. and then we will re-discuss how much we can trust the data shared by biotronik.
an issue can happen, but the companies need to striving for patient safety!

if they will do an action on linox then they have to justify this kind of publication.
