Due to products manufactured under an inadequate quality system to include unvalidated manufacturing processes.

Hemostasis valve has a manufacturing defect and when used the valve cap may remain depressed, leading to potential leakage, which may result in procedure inconvenience and/or hemorrhage.

Medline Industries, LP is issuing a recall for specific item(s) and lot(s) of Medline Kits containing SafeAir Smoke Evacuation Pencils.

Due to products that have not completed design updates and performance testing being released/distributed. Products may not conform to design and performance criteria.

Medtronic identified an Affinity NT Oxygenator unit with decreased CO2 gas transfer rates that did not meet performance requirements.

The nasal feeding tube may be occluded

The device may either fail to start up, or the transducer may start briefly and then stop, accompanied by an error light on the generator. In addition, the body of the transducer handpiece may gradually increase in temperature during clinical use.

Philips has identified that some ceiling suspension telescopic carriages manufactured from July 2024 through June 2025 may be difficult to move vertically (i.e. additional force/physical exertion required for manual movement) due to potential manufacturing issues.

Detachable coils system may fail to detach, which could result in hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke, procedural delays, or the need for additional surgical intervention.

Firm received multiple complaints of anesthesia circuit leaks due to cracks in the 120" expandable tubing. Cracks and resulting leaks may lead to hypoxia, hypoventilation, and inadequate delivery of inhaled anesthetic agents, which may result in serious injury or death. Volatile anesthetics may also escape into the operating room environment.

Certain serial numbers of the SimplyGo Mini standard battery kit contain a defective chip which can lead the battery to either fail to charge or lose voltage output when in use in the device. If the fault occurs while the device is running on battery power, the SimplyGo Mini will shut down and stop providing oxygen to the user. This may happen at a temperature within the specified operating temperature range of the SimplyGo Mini.

The barcode orientation on affected devices causes incorrect scanning order of tubes within the allergen holder wedge. When using an IMMULITE 2000 / IMMULITE 2000 XPi instrument in combination with a Zebra barcode scanner, the instrument will not correctly recognize the position of tubes within the allergen holder wedge.
