Medtronic has become aware that certain lots of the VCLAS 3MM, 10MM, and 15MM laser diffusing fibers were not tested at intended laser power levels, due to an issue related to calibration of the test equipment, which can lead to the potential for low laser energy output from fiber or fiber burnout at lower wattage.
