Medical device and health technology recalls from FDA. Includes diagnostic equipment, implants, monitors, and therapeutic devices.
Non-conforming product may appear in the field as inability to advance or retract the basket, or the drive wire breaking or separating from handle (with or without mechanical lithotripsy).
(1) There is vial to vial variation resulting in some vials recovering positive for hCG, which should be negative and (2) high and outside range for cortisol. (3) There has been a transcription error for Creatinine in the Instructions For Use (IFU). The target and ranges for Creatinine for the Roche Creatinine Plus method have been listed incorrectly. These failures cause a delay in patient results for the above mentioned analytes.
When an update to the A710 Clinician Programmer software application for the Intellis Neurostimulation System was released, the corresponding version of the A901 Communication Manager software application was not available for download.
39-inche-wide inflatable air transfer mattress packages contain 34-Inch-wide mattresses, so there may be a decreased surface area available to distribute the patient's weight across, which may increase the effort exerted by staff for a lateral patient transfer, and there may be increased friction and shearing forces when the patient is moved resulting in skin tear injury.
Beckman Coulter, Inc. is recalling Ringed DxI Reaction Vessels (RVs) as part of Unicel DxI Immunoassay System (600, 800 series). The reason for the recall is that the firm has identified 3 lots of RVs that failed an internally used service test to evaluate washing efficiency. Increased relative light units (RLU) suspected to be caused by the resulting rough interior surface may lead to artificially falsely elevated results for susceptible tests, in particular, sandwich assays including, but not limited to, hsTnI, Hybritech p2PSA, IPTH/IPTH IO.
An issue was identified where the LCD monitor display may not indicate the correct active channel. The issue occurs when the monitor is turned on using battery power, and channel B was selected as the last active channel prior to powering down.
Due to a hardware issue in the cable connectors of the system generator, a thermal overload in the cable connections may occur when performing excessive fluoroscopy/acquisitions, a burning smell may be detectable coming from the generator cabinet and the system may lose the imaging functionality of the corresponding plane and result in a situation where it is necessary to cancel clinical treatment or to continue treatment on an alternative system

Cardinal Health has received an increase in burst/leaking complaints from mid-April to May regarding the above listed lot of the Novalplus Infant Heel Warmer with tape.
An issue with the Suction Coagulator product family may lead to fluid ingress into the handpiece. Fluid ingress can lead to intermittent device activation, non-activation, or self-activation when plugged into the electrosurgery unit (ESU).
Due to a software anomaly after approximately 91 days of cumulative use, the ventilator may stop and enter the ambient mode without prior notice.

There is a potential risk for unintentional interaction of the Impella motor housing with the distal stent of a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) resulting in destruction of the impeller blades. This has resulted in low flow from the damaged Impella system. Systemic embolization of the fractured impeller material is a possibility.
