Medical device and health technology recalls from FDA. Includes diagnostic equipment, implants, monitors, and therapeutic devices.
GE HealthCare has become aware that for certain MR systems, the system predicted B1+RMS value can exceed the B1+RMS user prescribed limit when scanning in Low SAR Mode and the following two conditions are met: 1. 2D FSE T2 FLAIR OR T2 FLAIR Propeller imaging sequence is selected, AND 2. the Optimized T2 FLAIR sequence option is turned off OR not included in the MR configuration. If this occurs, it can result in overheating of an MR conditional implant.

Non-conformance pertains to electromagnetic compatibility requirements according to the international technical standard IEC 60601-1-2 for the safety and essential performance of medical electrical equipment, where the result from the Horizon DXA System exceeded the limit for acceptability.
The Braun Thermoscan PRO 6000 ear thermometers may have been shipped with a compact disc (CD) containing an outdated version of the Instructions for Use (IFU).
IFU for hookup were incorrectly reflected within hookup IFUs and online reference system, Hookup Lookup (HULU). Use of an incorrect hookup connection and/or parameter set may prevent an endoscope from being properly disinfected, which may present a risk of patient contamination or infection

Sterilization certificates could not be validated by the supplier
Foreign material may be present on the enclosed section of the cutting wire which may lead to inability to optimally bow the sphincterotome. This issue may lead to prolongation of procedure.
Some foil pouches were found torn open, impacting the sterile barrier which was traced to a specific machine used during product packaging.
The protective pouches were identified to have been improperly labeled with UDI that is associated with an incorrect GMDN (Global Medical Device Nomenclature) code. These blue foam pouches were misused due to misclassification of the GMDN.
Medical convenience kits contain plastic syringes affected by the FDA Safety Alert issued on March 19, 2024. Leaks, breakage, and/ other quality issues have been identified that may pose a risk to patient health.
