Medical device and health technology recalls from FDA. Includes diagnostic equipment, implants, monitors, and therapeutic devices.
There is the potential for missing motor mounting screws, which may have occurred during the servicing process.

Entering multiple keys that trigger input simultaneously may remove data from first field of screens and/or questionnaires with more than one field.
Beckman Coulter identified that an issue for Access 2 Sample Motors (B48016) due to improper alignment, causing the motors to rub against the sample wheelbase plate and index sensor. The issue was traced to a worn tool used in production (at the supplier), affecting Access 2 sample motors. This could lead to a potential delay in reporting patient test results.
A software application that receives digital images and data from various sources has a bug in specific software versions that will calculate the Standard Uptake Value (SUV) incorrectly for PET/CT studies acquired on the days of Daylight Savings Time (DST); only on dates in which DST transition occurs; all other dates are unaffected. An incorrect SUV may lead to an incorrect diagnosis.
Product is mislabeled with the incorrect fill volume.
During an internal investigation, ACS was unable to confirm that the CODMAN component achieved the required Sterility Assurance Level and therefore is not suitable for sterilization according to ACS procedures.
Multiple complaints indicating lower than expected quality control (QC) results and in some instances QC recovery below the lower limit of the package insert acceptance range when testing is performed with HemosIL Liquid Anti-Xa and HemosIL Heparin Calibrator. In some complaints, failure to pass QC resulted in patient testing delays.
Multi-Function Ventilators were serviced using incorrect parts which have the potential to cause unexpected shutdown, or when using an active circuit could result in inaccurate tidal volume monitor, not triggering on patient efforts, less inspiratory volume, less inspiratory pressure, and less PEEP delivered.
Incorrect keypad was incorrectly installed onto a defibrillator/monitor.
Potential variability in calculations from fast array scans compared to array scans when operating on Hologic Horizon machines.
Due to issues associated with data migration of patient information and results to a Cloud service, the firm has received complaint associated with some patient profile information being duplicated while other patient information is missing.
Affected lot (439363) exhibited a negative dose drop of -22% with native patient samples compared to alternate reagent lots. Patient samples tested with the affected lot may demonstrate repeatable falsely decreased results, which may lead to improper diagnosis or repeat testing.
All Medtronic MiniMed pumps (Paradigm series, Minimed 530G, 6XX series, and 7XX series) were found to have the potential for abnormal insulin delivery due to changes in air pressure, which can be found during airplane take-off or landing. An unexpected additional dose of insulin, which can occur during take-off, can result in severe hypoglycemia, altered mental status, seizure, coma, or death. An unexpected under-delivery of insulin, which can occur during landing, can result in severe hyperglycemia, dehydration, diabetic ketoacidosis, or death.
For certain MR systems, a scan can be resumed following a Power Monitor trip when the "6-minute average SAR" is above the limit indicated on the "SAR Display". The user interface may incorrectly enable a scan to proceed earlier than intended. If resumed by the operator, such a scan can result in potential excessive tissue heating, especially if the patient is in contact with a conductive material or has an implant.
