B. PENTARAY NAV ECO HIGH DENSITY CATHETERS

Reason

Biosense Webster is clarifying the contraindication language in the instructions for use (IFU) and product labeling relative to patients with prosthetic valves. The current language states: "[The] use of this catheter may not be appropriate for use in patients with prosthetic valves." Biosense Webster is updating the IFU to clarify the contraindication statement as follows: "do not use PentaRay catheters in patients with prosthetic valves." this action is not a product removal.
