Y70-Y82: Medical devices associated with adverse incidents in diagnostic and therapeutic use
Y75: Neurological devices associated with adverse incidents
Neurological devices associated with adverse incidents refer to medically implanted or external apparatuses designed to monitor, treat, or alleviate neurological conditions, which have resulted in unexpected negative occurrences for the patient. These incidents can arise due to various reasons such as device malfunction, infection from implanted devices, incorrect installation, or adverse physiological response to the device. Commonly affected systems include the brain and nervous system, which may result in symptoms like altered cognition, speech problems, mobility issues or even changes in sensory perceptions. The progression of these conditions can vary widely, from immediate to gradual, depending on factors like the nature of the device, the specific medical condition being treated, and individual patient characteristics.
