   2019 ICD matter was an FDA/Medtronic safety advisory about Conexus telemetry, not a recall

   Before

   In 2019, Medtronic recalled nearly half a million implantable cardioverter-defibrillators due to cybersecurity vulnerabilities that could potentially allow unauthorized remote access.

   After

   In 2019, Medtronic issued a safety advisory affecting implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (Conexus telemetry) due to cybersecurity vulnerabilities that could potentially allow unauthorized remote access.

   Why: Verified fix is fully applied: body text correctly reads 'issued a safety advisory affecting implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (Conexus telemetry)'. Bibliography lists a generic FDA cybersecurity guidance reference with no specific Medtronic recall claim. FAQ field decoded cleanly (ops: base64,json,base64,json, 5 entries) and contains no mention of Medtronic, a recall, or defibrillators at all. No further changes needed.
