- Summary: This FDA Warning Letter, dated October 26, 2009, was issued to Heartsine Technologies Inc. following an inspection from July 23 to August 4, 2009, in Newtown, Pennsylvania. The firm manufactures Class III Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) devices.

The inspection revealed the AED devices are misbranded under Section 502(t)(2) of the Act due to failures in Medical Device Tracking Requirements (21 C.F.R. Part 821) and Medical Device Reporting (MDR) regulations (21 C.F.R. Part 803).

    *   Failure to establish a procedure for recording missing tracking data and reasons for its absence.
    *   Failure to conduct tracking system audits at required intervals (last audit on (b)(4), subsequent audit not conducted by inspection date).
