Accelerated battery depletion may result in a need for device replacement earlier than expected.

The LRUL and LLUR posterior chairside splints and the LLUR anterior chairside splints may be mislabeled.

Accelerated battery depletion may result in a need for device replacement earlier than expected.

The Yukon polyaxial screw used in the Yukon Spinal System was incorrectly laser marked with size 5.0 mm (diameter) & 24 mm (length).

FUJIFILM has become aware that incorrect concentration values were printed on the bottle label for all product manufactured as part of Lot EL629. This may result incorrect results when used in testing.

The software does not update measurements and calculations in the Clinical Reporting Application (CRA) when the ventricular trace is changed in the study by a different user.

Component failures may cause the unit to lose all suction. Users will need to obtain alternate suction devices or methods, leading to a delay in treatment and, in worst case scenario, potential suffocation if alternative suction or ventilation method is not administered by the user.

Neonatal Valves were manufactured with a ventricular catheter connection site shorter than the design specification. The defect can lead to difficulty in securing the valve to the proximal catheter which could result in disconnection of the ventricular catheter from the valve and shunt malfunction

The instruments may become cold welded together when the drill is inserted through the Soft Tissue Guide. This prevents disassociation of the instruments and potentially leads to an increased chance of fracture of the drill.

Neonatal Valves were manufactured with a ventricular catheter connection site shorter than the design specification. The defect can lead to difficulty in securing the valve to the proximal catheter which could result in disconnection of the ventricular catheter from the valve and shunt malfunction

A discrepancy was found between the Mixing Instruction Card and the Instructions for Use for the 5cc and 10 cc bone void filler kits. No customer complaints or reports of injury have been received.

Potential for incorrect Instructions For Use (IFU) included with an Equinoxe Humeral Stem, Primary, Press Fit, 11mm package.

A software error results in the unintentional removal of the serum-indices flag that would otherwise prevent the release of results. The Cobas Inifinity has an auto-verification feature to hold results for manual review when they meet specific criteria. The serum indices flag is used for serum indices tests that are performed to assess the quality of the sample (e.g. hemolysis, icterus, and lipemia). Normally, when the Cobas Infinity receives a result for a test that is serum indices-sensitive, it flags the result and the software then waits for the results of the serum indices tests before validating or rejecting the test result. Roche has discovered a software error that under specific conditions causes the flag to be incorrectly removed. This allows for the possibility that a sample of poor quality may return an unreliable/incorrect test result that is mistakenly reported to the health care provider and/or patient without the proper disclaimer that the result is based on a sample of poor quality.

The Quality Control (QC) card has a label error for the standard deviation (SD) values for one out of the two levels of QC.

A discrepancy was found between the Mixing Instruction Card and the Instructions for Use for the 5cc and 10 cc bone void filler kits. No customer complaints or reports of injury have been received.

There is a potential for the wrong patient information may be displayed in the viewer or PowerJacket. Additionally, the incorrect max standard uptake values (SUV) for PET ad CT studies may be returned for Siemens Modality.

The deviation in conductivity for sodium level exceeds 0.6mS/cm from the theoretical conductivity (TCD) or approximately 6mEq/L of sodium from prescriptions that was previously communicated. Calcium concentration is below manufacturing specification.

When the user changes frame rates from lower frequency (e.g. 10 f/s) to higher frequency (e.g. 30 f/s) during continuous release of Fluoro "Fluoro Override", the measured Air Kerma Rate can exceed the regulatory limits.
