It is our understanding that you are not able to terminate our license authorizing the use of plutonium in cardiac pacemakers until all of our units have been recovered. For this reason, we wish to amend our license for inclusion of a physician, Wayne Breece, M.D. who will be responsible for the explantation, recovery and disposal of remaining pacemakers.

In support of this request, the following information is provided:

1.

Dr. Breece's specialty is Cardiology. He is not Board certified and is an active attending physician at Hurley Medical Center.

2.

Dr. Breece recently explanted a pacemaker on Monday, January 27, Q

a.

l986 (Medtronics Serial #5R0042). Dr. Breece continues to follow one of Hurley's two remaining patients on nuclear pacemakers.

o m

3.

Currently, explantation of pulse generators, if possible, is done in the

,ogg Cardiovascular Study Unit. A semi annual follow up program is in effect. Dr. Breece is familiar with Medtronics protocol and technical o-&

O-S manual for the Medtronic TM Laurens-Alcatel Model 9000 and eni understands that the issuance of a license is conditioned upon the use ROE of this protocol and has been familiarized on the following of the sem instructions and the technical manual regarding " transporting, handling and sterilization of the pulse generator", and " comments on implantation procedure (myocardial leads)."

Page 2 April 28,1986 in addition, license amendment number 5, to license number SNM-1393 dated April 15,1986, cites amendments requested in a March 6,1986 letter. We do not i

have a record of this correspondence in our file. I believe that the reference cited is a January 6,1986 correspondence, and would ask that your of fice recheck this amendment request.

if you have any questions, or require additional information regarding any of these s

requests or questions, please contact my office.
