Ultrasound transducer devices were refurbished beyond their useful life.
A software issue was identified in the internal communication process between the system software and the X-ray generator firmware. Loss of imaging (X-ray) functionality caused by the software issue in either of the two situations identified could result in a delay of therapy. The potential delay may result in serious adverse health outcomes, including the possibility of death, especially when the system is used with patients undergoing complex and/or urgent interventions for potentially life-threatening conditions (e.g., acute ischemic stroke, ST-segment elevation myocardial ischemia, life-threatening bleedings).
Affected products were packaged with the incorrect KWIK STIK assembly resulting in the product containing the wrong microorganism. 0621K was packaged 01065K swabs; 01065K was packaged with 0621K swabs. This may lead to delayed diagnosis.
A mechanical component that supports the O2 gantry to the support structure in affected devices may have been damaged during manufacture.
Investigation has identified that the age of the nylon packaging material has caused a loss of integrity of some pouches.
Medline Industries, LP. is issuing a recall for specific Medline kits containing BD Insyte Autoguard Shielded IV Catheters 22 GA x 1.00 IN which was identified that during insertion of the Catheter, the needle is slow to retract or fails to retract.
Due to a software bug the robotic arm may incorrectly guide the instrument compared to the planning defined by user.
GE HealthCare has become aware that gradient coils for certain MR systems (see affected product list in this letter), under specific conditions, can produce elevated acoustic noise during scanning. As a result, acoustic levels can exceed 99dB, the limit established by International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC 60601-2-33) when using hearing protection with a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of 29dB, as currently required in the Operator Manual.
The 8-inch model of the Jewel Precision Reusable Rigid Sterilization Container System (i.e., model number: JP-24-8) was not cleared by the FDA. The letter to file justifying the change in size was insufficient.
Insulet Corporation is recalling Omnipod 5 iOS App, due to a software design issue in which a comma is not recognized as a decimal separator and the user cannot enter a decimal separator in any manual entry screen if the user manually updates their phone settings to a region OUS that uses a decimal separator instead of a period decimal separator or chooses that format as a preference. Use of the affected software may result in over delivery of insulin by increasing the amount of insulin when a decimal separator is not recognized (e.g., 0.1 unit recognized as 1 unit) and thus may result in hypoglycemia, potentially severe.
