Does not meet the requirements for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of the standard IEC 60601-1-2. Electromagnetic interference occurring during a procedure may cause the device to malfunction requiring the replacement of the device. This could potentially result in a prolonged procedure and/or require additional medical intervention
The reason for this recall is PTS Diagnostics, Inc. received complaints of non-matching cartridge and analyzer codes within the product test system box. Use of cartridges and analyzers with non-matching codes may result in inaccurate test results as components within each lot number are meant to be used together, and not mixed between lots. Therefore, the test results may possibly lead to Hemoglobin A1C positive or negative bias results. While the product is for monitoring only, over recovery with a higher than accurate value can be an indication for increased therapy; such as physical activity, weight reduction, meal management, pharmaceutical therapy.

EVIS EXERA III Video System Center Model Number CV-190. Intended to be used with OLYMPUS camera heads, endoscopes, light sources, monitors, EndoTherapy accessories, and other ancillary equipment for endoscopic diagnosis, treatment, and video observation
Olympus Corporation of the Americas
Certain serial numbers of the CV-190 do not start up properly because parts that deviated from the specification were assembled into the power supply unit.
Due to a manufacturing process resulting in holes/breaches in the Tyvek sterile barrier.
Due to modified test kits being marketed and distributed without FDA Approval, Clearance or Authorization.
Boston Scientific has received reports indicating the grid mark overlay on the cross-sectional view did not present correctly when an OptiCross 18 Peripheral Imaging Catheter was connected to the AVVIGO+ Multi-Modality Guidance System while in either Live or Record mode. The Boston Scientific investigation determined that, due to a software anomaly, a 9-grid mark overlay is incorrectly displayed during Live mode when AVVIGO+ is connected to an OptiCross 18 Peripheral Imaging Catheter. Note that the correct overlay display for this catheter is the 15-grid mark overlay, which allows for a reference depth setting of 14.9mm for peripheral catheters. This software anomaly is limited to Live or Record mode. In Review mode, the correct 15-grid mark overlay is displayed, and the vessel image is correctly scaled to the appropriate size.
Due to a manufacturing process resulting in holes/breaches in the Tyvek sterile barrier.
Beckman Coulter IRISPEC CA/CB/CC Urine Chemistry Controls, Catalog Number REF 800-7211 and 800-7702, in vitro diagnostic device.
Beckman Coulter
Beckman Coulter has become aware of an increase in customer complaints for intermittent IRISpec CB negative glucose control failure, resulting in false positive control results when used in conjunction with iChemVELOCITY Urine Chemistry Strips (PNs 800-7204 and 800-7212) on the iChemVELOCITY Analyzer. This issue may delay the reporting of patient results, with a worst-case scenario of a delay in diagnosis or treatment of metabolic disorders, kidney function abnormalities, urinary tract infections, and liver function.
