After the FDA posted on its website that Medtronic (MDT) is recalling the SynchroMed Implantable Infusion Pumps because of a software problem, RBC Capital said this new recall may impact the timeline for United Therapeutics (UTHR) implantable pump. In March of last year, United Therapeutics said that Medtronic and the company were assessing a U.S. Food and Drug Administration response letter to Medtronic's premarket approval application, PMA, for the Remodulin Implantable System and measures to address the agency's concerns.
