Boston Scientific recovery remains constrained by clinical supply risk

Shipping has restarted for most products at major distribution centres, but backlog, manufacturing constraints and new cardiac-device monitoring activations keep the incident inside the clinical-risk agenda.

Decision owner: CISO with chief operating officer, procurement leadership, clinical engineering, supply-chain management and legal counsel

Decision horizon: Immediate clinical and supply review; supplier assurance and backlog disposition within 24 hours; executive reassessment within 72 hours.
