ESAOTE S.P.A
The AC/DC adapter (power supply) of the portable ultrasound systems listed below that may result in the connector heating up, generating smoke and melting. This condition is caused by the mechanical stress of the connection between the AC/DC power adapter and the mains cable over the time of use.
The probe power monitoring settings have been found to be not appropriate under specific operating conditions when connected to the devices listed below. This issue may result in overheating of the probe head. The probe power monitoring settings may not be effective in specific operating conditions so that the surface of the probe head may overheat in around one minute of continuous operations. The patient may experience discomfort, reddening of epidermis and/or mild pain. To date, no patient injury has been reported with regards to this issue.
