Here's a link to the FDA's information page about lithium battery problems in some St Jude ICD and CRT-D models manufactured before May 2015:

I have Googled and found the St Jude Patient Support Page Cutestuff refers to: https://www.sjm.com/en/patients/arrhythmias/resources-support/battery-advisory

Go to St. Jude Medical's patient support page, and it will have a page where you can put in your make and model and it can tell you if there is a recall or concern with it. I would have put the url but my internet security would not let me paste it. Good Luck
