A potential safety issue due to loss of gas monitoring associated with occlusion of specific D-Fend / D-Fend+ water traps used with Compact Airway Modules E/M-C(Ai)O(V)(X) and Cardiocap/5 monitors. This water trap occlusion could cause a loss of respiratory airway gas monitoring.

Software anomaly in the Panorama System software version 8.9 that manifests when the Panorama is in use with Mindray Passport V Monitor. Arrhythmia alarms which were previously displayed on both the Passport V and Panorama will not be displayed on the Panorama following a restart of either system (due to communication loss, restart, etc.).

Study and all acquired images deleted when using systems with software version VE10E. Acquisitions have to be repeated. Connection with portable detectors (MAX wi-D, MAX mini) is sporadic in image recovery. Pressing undo button on the RAD subtask card or previous series button on the Image subtask card during image readout. Sporadically, during an automatic or a manual RIS update.

The bottle assemblies were manufactured with a quality issue where in some cases the smaller diameter opening on both IMMULITE 2000 and IMMULITE 2000XPi Water Bottles and Liquid Waste Bottles is undersized and/or deformed, preventing the cap from closing or fastening securely to the bottle.

The root cause investigation showed that the under-volume hazard can occur when the unit has been configured to prime with contrast, but instead primes with saline due to the configuration data not being sent to the injector head. This may create a non-optimal priming condition that could lead to under-infusion.

Firm discovered that incorrect Instructions for Use were shipped with one lot of D2-40.

It was noticed that the spectroscopy voxel map did not align with the anatomical images of the phantom. This resulted in incorrect orientation of the Chemical Shift Imaging (CSI) data.

Customers complained about under-recovery of non-Roche controls and discrepant low patient results with certain Homocysteine reagent lots. This negative bias could, in the worst case, lead to inaccurately low Homocysteine results. An elevated level of Homocysteine is considered an important risk factor in the assessment of peripheral vascular disease. Falsely low values could lead to a delay of di

GE Healthcare has become aware that 3 bolts that secure a power supply to the rotating side of the gantry were over-torqued on certain Lightspeed 16 CT scanner or PET/CT DST Scanner.. In the unlikely event that the component becomes loose on the CT gantry during operation, it could result in serious bodily injury if the component were expelled. There were no incidents or injuries reported as a res

The probability and histogram data within the Melafind's device displayed user interface lacks approval (not included in the PMA supplement).

Richard Allan Scientific (RAS) is initiating a recall of Mucolytic agent and Mucolexx following a customer complaint reporting that a lab had found fungal contamination in 2 lots of Mucolexx.

Integra LifeSciences Corporation is recalling Integra's Camino ICP Monitor (CAM 02) & Licox PtO2 Monitor ( LCX02 & LCX02R) due to complaints that the audible speaker malfunctions.
