On October, 15, 2007, Medtronic Inc. announced it was recalling its Sprint Fidelis leads from the worldwide market citing a risk of fracture, which can potentially cause a defibrillator to either fail or deliver unnecessary shocks.
The recall involves the following Medtronic defibrillation leads:
| | - Sprint Fidelis 6930
- Sprint Fidelis 6931
- Sprint Fidelis 6948
- Sprint Fidelis 6949

Most defibrillator and pacemaker patients have an identification card that lists the model and serial numbers of their device and leads.
