Sterility of device is compromised due to a sterile barrier breach
Stent Graft Systems built with specific batches of taper tip assemblies have the potential for the taper tip to detach from the delivery system. Detachment of the taper tip during the implant procedure may lead to a secondary intervention to attempt to remove the taper tip, either by endovascular retrieval or surgical conversion. There is also potential that the taper tip is intentionally left behind in the patient, at the physician's discretion, if not easily removable.
There is a potential for the outer Tyvek lid to de-bond from the sealed package.
Lack of Assurance of Sterility
Undeclared soy in Tartar sauce. Ingredients statement declares soybean oil.
Abnormal images such as horizontal stripes may be displayed and recovery may not not be possible by restarting the system. The worst case scenario is an operator who is working without a workable image may remove a catheter from the patient's blood vessel and damage the blood vessel.
The firm has received six (6) complaint reports from customers indicating difficulty removing the balloon protector sleeve from the catheter (e.g., excessive force required to remove the protector sleeve). If the balloon is damaged while removing the protector sleeve and the catheter is subsequently used in a patient procedure, patient harm may potentially occur, including perforation of vessels, foreign body in patient, embolism, risks associated with surgical intervention, or delay to treatment/therapy.
Undeclared milk
Due to the inadequate adjusting criteria in installation, the system generator on two Digital Angiography Systems, the irradiated x-ray may exceed the x-ray radiation dose rate in fluoroscopic mode.
The product contains natural rubber latex but the label states that it does not.
Products were shipped to the Global Distribution Center instead of the sterilizer and therefore product did not undergo the sterilization process
Certain lots may not have been packaged wth the Channel Tube Limiter.
The lot has a shape deformity which may lead to a 16% reduction in the volume of the sample or reagent dispensed. In cases where the error is not detected and the affected results are not suppressed, clinical impact may include reduced drug dosage, or false positive or false negative results for bloodborne infectious disease assays when sample results are close to the cut-off value.
