Medical Devices Recalls

Mislabeled: Angle and height of the device marked as L(large) corresponds to the small/medium dimensions due to a product mix-up. This may result in too little bone material resected and not fit correctly leading to extended surgery time

It was determined that the Endotracheal Tube Holder included in certain kits is not compatible with a cricothyrotomy procedure, leaving practitioners without the necessary means to secure the inserted endotracheal tube.

There is a manufacturing defect affecting specific rotator lots. Within this population, the inner diameter of the devices O-ring may be oversized affecting seal integrity. An inadequate seal may lead to a leak during infusion of medication which may potentially lead to under infusion of medication.

The above-listed lots of Cardinal Health Medi-Vac CRD" Suction Canister Liners 1L may experience loss of suction on low or low intermittent suction settings, due to a misalignment of the liner with the outer hard canister.

The MINC+ device is susceptible to losing temperature control of electrostatic discharge (static electricity) is applied to the lid of the device. This may lead to embryo degeneration necessitating an additional medical procedure for the patient.

Tubes have missing additive/anticoagulant resulting in clotting in most cases. A completely clotted sample would lead to no results being reported, which could lead to a delay in treatment or diagnosis. An erroneous glucose or lactose result from a partially clotted sample could lead to inappropriate treatment.

If the Patient Interface Monitor (PIM) Cable is plugged/unplugged frequently as part of daily operation, the connector and wire may disconnect from the welding point, which may result in intermittent loss of the ECG signal. Loss of ECG signal may lead to the decision to rescan the patient or delay in diagnosis during a clinical emergency.

Push notifications may fail to send to the user under certain conditions. This could potentially result in patient harm due to delay in detection of a change in patient condition.

Express chest drains are pre-packaged with sterile water syringes which have bene recalled. If the device is not kept in an upright position, the patient may be exposed to infectious material. Subsequent hazards include but are not limited to infection, abscess, sepsis, and death.

CK Total in Calibration Serum Level 3, CAL2351, is running with a positive bias on RX Series instruments compared to other methods experience a shift in Quality Control and patient sample recovery of up to 13%.
