Universal Meditech Inc. was violatively distributing PrestiBio" Breastmilk Alcohol Test Strip, DiagnosUS¿ SARS-CoV-2 Antibody (IgG/IgM) Test, HealthyWiser KetoFast" Ketone Test Strips and PrestiBio" Ketone Test Strips without marketing authorization. UMI is also recall their tests because they are going out of business and would not be able to continue fulfilling any post-market responsibilities of these distributed products. UMI claims to hold 510(k)s for the other devices, purchased the intellectual property in 2015 from the previous 510(k) holder, but FDA has been unable to verify this information. The devices may have unknown performance characteristics because the firm is unable to provide any documentation that the devices were manufactured in conformance with the Quality System regulation, including documentation (e.g., DHF) that the distributed devices had not been modified since original clearance in a way that could impact their safety and effectiveness, documentation of controlled storage temperature/humidity, and post-market surveillance documentation, such as complaints and adverse events.

The firm has investigated and confirmed that when DxI 9000 is connected to Laboratory Information System (LIS, host), the sample barcode presented may be ignored and replaced with a sample ID that was previously in the same rack and position. This will cause a delay of result to the sample currently presented to the system (Sample B) and may result in an erroneous test result for the prior sample (Sample A), which gets associated with the results of sample B.
Some Venue Go Standard Carts can develop an internal failure of the vertical/horizontal tilt adjustment mechanism which can result in the Venue Go system detaching from the cart and falling.
In rare occasions, the combination of a leak of a highly flammable solvent at the ion source probe, and an electrical discharge may result in a flame on top of the probe and possible ejection of the electrode assembly from the probe. There is a risk to the patient/user, customer property, or environment because there is a potential for a health risk and property damage should the flame be left unattended. The failure causes a delay in patient results.

Non-conformances in Veran devices (ig4 Image Guided System, SPiN Thoracic Navigation System, SPiN Planning Laptop Workstation, and all associated navigation instruments) manufacturing to design requirements and insufficient evidence to demonstrate adequate electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). EMC is the ability of electrical equipment and systems to function acceptably without interference and to not interfere with other devices within its operating environment
There is a potential for a positive bias on Quality Control (QC) and patient sample results when using some IRON_2 reagent wedge pairs. When the issue occurs, the observed bias will vary wedge to wedge.
There is a potential interruption of data communication between E-modules inserted in the F2-01 Frame and CARESCAPE ONE and CARESCAPE Canvas 1000 patient monitors if the F2-01 Frame has not been powered down within the last 120 days.

Ortho Clinical Diagnostics (QuidelOrtho) confirmed certain Proboscis/Piston Assemblies manufactured between 07-Apr-2022 (Date code: 040722) and 19-Dec-2022 (Date code: 121922) may not perform as intended due to an out-of-specification barrel component. This may cause VITROS VersaTips and/or VITROS MicroTips to be improperly seated on the proboscis, which may result in falsely elevated Gentamicin and Valproic Acid assay results as well as an increased frequency of condition codes resulting in delayed patient results. The issue was identified by internal testing when reported instruments failed to pass release testing and were traced to the molded Proboscis part J56639 with date codes from 040722 onward.

Specific lots of 3M Attest Super Rapid Readout Biological Indicators (1492V), 3M Attest Super Rapid 5 Steam-Plus Challenge (41482V, 41482VF), and 3M Attest Super Rapid Readout Steam Challenge (1496V) may contain biological indicators with a cap that melts, deforms and/or cracks following a steam sterilization cycle of 132¿C and 135¿C.
The display of inflow volume can reach its limit of 30,000 ml during long procdeure and the inflow volume display will freeze at the maximum value while the deficit will start counting backwards until 0 ml is reached and may result in fluid overload
Multiple impacts, for example from being dropped, can cause to the Ambu aView 2 Advance to short-circuit and under special circumstances make the lithium-ion battery in the device combust leading to smoke and flames
Various medical devices potentially exposed to rodent and rodent activity. In addition, medical devices may have been subjected to temperatures in excess of storage requirements on product labeling.
