When video laryngoscopy system users apply, twisting motions while connecting the blade in the HDMI port, or excessive torsion to the connection port, this force is transferred to the HDMI PCB, which may result in video synchronization interruption, loss of live image/blank screen, no cameras connected monitor warning, may present risk to patients, in which time to intubation is more critical.
Potential risk of patient mix-up on analyzers due to software issues.
Ingestible video capsule system has capsule with incorrect capture mode which will not record data when the capsule is ingested by patients. If used, there is a risk of delay of diagnosis and the patient may need to repeat the exam.
uDR 596i Digital Medical X-Ray Imaging System - Product Usage: intended to use by a qualified/ trained doctor or technician on both adult and pediatric subjects for taking diagnostic radiographic exposures of the skull, spinal column, chest, abdomen, extremities, limbs and trunk.
Shanghai United Imaging Healthcare Co.
Two issues were identified with the stationary x-ray system. 1. Some position illustrations in the patient exam interface show the incorrect anatomical position for the standard of care. When the image is acquired with the wrong reference position, clinical diagnostic requirements cannot be met.T2. Where image stitching is used, the left and right tag information may be lost. When these problems are encountered, an additional exposure is needed and the patient will receive more radiation.

Thermo switches in the main power supply for the system may be incorrectly installed, resulting in a malfunction.
A healthcare provider (HCP) noticed a patient had a lowered historic SpO2 reading that the software should have triggered a notification to the care team, but no notification was found. A software defect was encountered causing the lack of notification. The defect could result in exposing a patient to potential hypoxia for a short window of time. The firm is correcting the software to bring the performance back into compliance with specifications.

The CARESCAPE Patient Data Module (PDM) is used with the following monitors: CARESCAPE B450/B650/B850, SOLAR 8000M/I and Transport Pro. If Pace detection is turned ON, on the monitor, and if an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is used to perform defibrillation, the low frequency signals deployed by the AED, cause the PDM to issue a false flat line ECG waveform and alarm Asystole to be displayed on the monitor.
The product has an incorrect reference value for cadmium and an incorrect expected range.
