## Abstract

A system for identifying and tracking a plurality of implant devices. The system includes at least one communication device and a medical implant device tracking system. The medical implant device tracking system includes a processor on which is installed an implant device tracking application. The implant device tracking application enables the communication device to scan a unique device identifier (UDI) of the implant devices thereby recording a complete and accurate set of information about the implant devices. The medical implant device tracking system includes a database unit, an implant manufacturer access unit, a hospital access unit, a patient access unit, and a physician access unit. The implant device tracking application generates immediate notification of the recall status of the at least one implant device at the time of the implant device scanning thereby preventing the implantation of the recalled implant device in the patient's body.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A medical implant device tracking system, comprising:
messages related to a device, a procedure, or a recall;

### Claim 2

A computer-implemented method of tracking and recalling medical implant devices, comprising, by a server executing an implant device tracking application:
(e) generating a recall notice in response to manufacturer input and automatically routing the recall notice to hospital and physician recipients resolved from the device record;

### Claim 3

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause a system to perform operations comprising:
