Medical Devices Recalls

Hazard: It was found that the shaft for mounting the X-ray tube unit on the support may break. In addition, it was found that the protective parts might not work effectively only when the shaft was broken while being operated toward the front while lifting.

Hazard: To provide further information to the user to ensure proper use of the medical device. the caps had been changed from a threaded version to a press-on version whereby the user must press the caps firmly onto the dialyzer to securely affix the cap.

Hazard: Reviewed complaints have identified that conjunctival wound dehiscence may result in early exposure of the surgical patch.

Hazard: Reviewed complaints have identified that conjunctival wound dehiscence may result in early exposure of the surgical patch.

Hazard: Production assembly error resulting in the potential for reversed articulation, where moving the lever forward caused the probe tip to anteflex rather than retroflex, and vice versa.

Hazard: It has been found that when SPOT Fluoro is first turned on, the default ROI is selected and the collimator blades move to the boundary of the ROI, and the static image is overlayed around the ROI, covering the collimated area. If the customer changes the ROI, the collimator blades and static images are adjusted accordingly. However, when the acquisition program is changed, the collimator returns to the default ROI position which may be larger than the specified one, leaving the X-ray area partially covered by the static image. This is a software problem with the SPOT Fluoro program and will not occur if the function is not used.

Hazard: Infusion pump module used with compatible pump infusion sets may perform outside the established performance ranges for flow rate and bolus accuracy, downstream and upstream occlusion time to alarm, and post-occlusion bolos volume.

Hazard: The unexpected internal fault / system diagnostic error to result when a rapid succession of button selections is made to the user interface without waiting for the device to respond to user prompts.

Hazard: Fluctuations may be more likely to occur if the total flow through the device sensor (used by the device to determine flow) is less than the minimum device requirement of 0.5 LPM. In addition, dose fluctuations have been observed when Bunnel LifePulse HFJV system or conventional ventilators have the following device settings: low service pressures generally less than 3.0 PSI, a pressure difference greater than 5.0cm H2O; or at breath per minute rates of 300 (5 Hz).

Hazard: Potential that the measured value may be smaller than the actual area.

Hazard: Vital sign monitoring instrument may trigger an error message during blood pressures measurements, Specifically, when the initial inflation pressure is set in the high-pressure range.

Hazard: Potential for false resistant results for Colistin (cs02n) with multi-drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii complex used in specific cards

Hazard: The kits contain certain lots of cannula products where the catheter may not retain its shape.

Hazard: There is a potential for an ice blockage to form or currently exist within the magnet venting system. In the event of a quench, helium gas may be unable to escape through the designed venting paths, leading to a pressure build-up within the helium containment system. This pressure build-up could ultimately rupture the helium containment system, potentially resulting in a helium leak into the scanning room.

Hazard: a potential product mix where the package labeled as Catalog Number 0580-1-442, lot A00976, may contain Catalog Number 0580-1-352, lot G8754849, and vice versa. Patient labels may also be impacted.

Hazard: If the radiosurgery system triggers a proximity error message during a long gantry move (greater-than180 degrees), and a subsequent proximity error message occurs after the automatic reduction of speed, a software defect could potentially lead the collimator to collide with patient shoulders or the patient table.
