The notice explained the availability of the updated software, Brady Software maintenance release 6 (SMR6) for the ACCOLADE family of pacemakers and cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemakers (CRT-Ps), clinical and device longevity of the update, and recommendations for recommendations on the upgrade.  \nIn a separate notice, patients were advised to keep and attend all scheduled medical and device check appointments and talk to their doctor about the best steps for managing their pacemaker system.  To confirm if the pacemaker or CRT-P is affected, please visit this website:  www.BostonScientific.com/lookup.   The language, as well as the model and serial numbers of the device, are required for the lookup which can be found on your patient ID card.  \nOur Product Performance Resource Center at www.bostonscientific.com/ppr, includes information on this topic, a device lookup tool, and instructions for returning explanted products. If you have additional questions, or would like to report on a clinical event, please contact your Boston Scientific representative or Technical Services.",
