The firm has become aware that the sensor cover, a component of the single-use navigation kit may contain microbial contamination. A source of microbial contamination has been identified in a raw product used to manufacture the tip of the cover.This could result in direct exposure of the intra-cardiovascular, intra-lymphatic or neurological system to a level of endotoxin sufficient to produce a pyrogenic response.

Cios Alpha, Model Number 10308191; mobile X-Ray system designed to provide X-ray imaging of the anatomical structures of patient during clinical application
Siemens Medical Solutions USA
During a routine inspection of a system, a crack on the C-arm holder was discovered. In the event the C-arm holder has a crack, the stability of the C-arm may be compromised and could lead to deformations of the C-arm. In very unlikely cases, an extreme impact to the C-arm such as heavy collision with a wall or table, may lead to a detachment of the C-arm and could potentially result in injury to patients and staff.
Excessive static electricity can potentially cause unrecoverable power loss and damage to the mobile power unit that can be used to power the left ventricular assist system, which could lead to no or reduced blood flow from the left ventricular assist system.
Under certain fault conditions, the existing design may expose the operator to a hazardous voltage when contacting the metal enclosure (including mounting screws) around the up/down switch.

O-arm" O2 Imaging System, Product Number/CFN: BI-700-02000
Medtronic Navigation, Inc.-Littleton
Due to a manufacturing issue affecting particular O-arm" O2 Imaging Systems, Medtronic has determined that the gantry tractor motor drive belt may loosen over an extended number of uses at a higher frequency in these systems. If the belt loosens, it may result in rotation of 3D images about the gantry isocenter. While the 3D image is anatomically accurate within the image itself and may be used to confirm therapy, its electronic registered location may be rotated relative to the actual physical position of the patient.
