Class II: Risk 12/04/2025 device

Device packaged in incorrect outer box carton.
Class I: Dangerous 10/01/2025 device

Potential cybersecurity vulnerabilities related to the operating system in the Automated Impella Controller (AIC).
Class I: Dangerous 09/16/2025 device

Potential for Automated Impella Controller (AIC) purge pressure issues due to purge retainer failures.
Class I: Dangerous 08/20/2025 device

Specific Automated Impella Controllers (AICs) that have a Pump Driver Circuit Assembly do not meet current specifications. This may lead to decreased pump performance or pump stop and trigger an Impella Failure or Impella Stopped Controller Failure alarm.
Class I: Dangerous 06/23/2025 device

A potential issue with the Automated Impella Controller (AIC) not detecting an Impella pump when it is connected
Class I: Dangerous 12/12/2024 device

Optical Sensors have been damaged due to physical interaction between the inlet and another device resulting in a Placement Signal Not Reliable (PSNR) alarm and loss of Central Venous (CV) Placement Signal, Pulmonary Artery (PA) Placement Signal & Pulmonary Artery Pulse Index (PAPi) metrics. Abiomed is reinforcing that there is a risk of potential interaction between the tip of guidewires, indwelling central venous lines or devices and inlet of the Impella pumps listed above during the insertion, manipulation, and removal of those devices. The interaction may result in optical sensor damage, temporary pump stop, or permanent pump stop.
