Potential safety issue with the AD7 and AD7X patient tables (both tilt and non-tilt versions) part of the Philips Allura and Azurion systems. During manual repositioning of the patient tabletop, a finger can get entrapped between the longitudinal guiding rails and the tabletop. This may result in an injury of the finger, applicable for operators and service personnel

Vagus nerve stimulator generators may stop delivering stimulation due to an internal, mechanically activated component that may become stuck in a closed position, which may result in patients returning to baseline seizure frequency or depressive symptoms and in the longer term, patients may be required to undergo generator replacement surgery to replace their device.

During the assembly of the cartridge to its connecting body part, the valve may open prematurely resulting in partial or complete emptying of the cartridge before its intended use.

Sutures may have an open seal on the primary packaging, due to a manufacturing issue on a specific machine, and if issue is undetected could lead to breach in sterility, could introduce pathogens to the patient and cause infection.

Potential failure to alarm for "No Device Data" INOP. The device to alarm after a Hamilton ventilator is disconnected from the EC10 Module or IntelliBridge I/O board.

The user can continue to take the next exposure after reaching the Automatic Exposure Control (AEC) limit, without taking any further actions to acknowledge or adjust exposure techniques. In all cases, a message still appears on the screen when the AEC limit is reached.

Three lots of Rapid fFN Specimen Collection kit (901164, 901165, and 904850) contain Rapid fFN Specimen Collection Tubes which may be empty, underfilled, or overfilled with extraction buffer. The transport tubes are used with the Fetal Fibronectin Enzyme Immunoassay and Rapid fFN¿ for the TLiIQ¿ System which aids in assessing the risk of preterm delivery. The use of empty transport tubes or transport tubes containing insufficient extraction buffer volume may result in invalid results and/or delays in obtaining results. Additionally, the use of underfilled tubes may result in false positive results and the use of overfilled tubes may result in false negative results.

There is a potential for the Inline Controller to be using the spring out of specification causing a loss of positive pressure resulting in the Neo-Tee Resuscitator and/or Circuit will not reach the high and low ends of the PIP and PEEP pressure ranges impacting effective ventilation of the patient..

Large Volume Pump Software, version 5.9.2 and earlier has potential for the following anomalies: 1. The pump may become nonfunctional if during an alarm condition the Pause Audio option is repeated 70 time or more. 2. If a secondary infusion is started at the exact moment a primary infusion completes and VTBI reaches 0, it will switch to primary. The primary infusion will infuse at the previously programed primary rate and continue until the infusion is stopped or the bag is empty.

Mislabeling; Levofloxacin Antimicrobial susceptibility disc packaging may contain Norfloxacin Antimicrobial Susceptibility discs.
