Medical Devices Recalls

The product description on the labeling includes the word "Sterile" or STRL", however the contents of the solution inside the foil sachet is non-sterile.

Firm is expanding the existing recall RES 90457 for the Cerelink, initiated in June 2022, to include all CereLink ICP Extension Cables. The updated corrective action includes a design change to the extension cable to address the "out of range readings" issue.

BD (C.R. Bard) has received user complaints reporting that when the device was connected to WiFi/Internet, the time displayed on the Sensica device changed during a patient monitoring session which resulted in 1) incorrect time displayed on the monitoring screen, 2) incorrect hour block timestamps on the monitoring screen, 3) incorrect hour timestamps on data screens, and 4) incorrect catheter use time.

During planned monitoring of data post-release of Software Version 3.8.0 an increased occurrence of software issues relating to unresponsive subsystems, unresponsive user interface (sometimes referred to as a screen freeze), and/or printer disconnections was identified. The consequence of these issues would be a delay in reporting results due to the required system shutdowns to recover the system. This delay in reporting results could occur during any assay, including which the speed of the result is deemed critical or STAT and could result in a delay of treatment in a patient. Due to the release strategy of this software version, the user could not update the system but a field engineer had to manually install each affected system.

Plastic vials contain a manufacturing defect may cause an increased risk of leakage and presents a risk of incidental exposure to biological hazards associated with direct contact with the patient specimen.

Potential hardware issue for ARTIS icono ceiling system: collision sensor may falsely signal non-existing collisions for up to half an hour when the system is switched off for a longer time (e.g., overnight) and switched on. During this time, system movement is only possible with the "override" function with very slow speed and without further collision protection. This may lead to temporary unavailability of the system for diagnostic and therapeutic usage.

Their is a potential that intraocular implant devices may not meet specifications.

Defect in the outer packaging of the Cranial Access Kits. can cause the packaging to split without any additional forces outside compromising the sterility of the device

Elekta has identified that if the microswitch within the middle arm is incorrectly setup, there is a potential for an uncontrolled extension of iViewGT / XVI detector arms. When the detector arm is fully deployed there is no risk of uncontrolled extension.

Nonconforming devices while manufactured correctly, do not comply to their design requirements. Potential harms associated with balloon detachment are endoscopic retrieval of an impacted or non-impacted object, bleeding caused by the retrieval device, or the incident can occur without injury and the object is left to pass naturally.

Incorrect bonding material used for assembly of the catheter, may fail, resulting in detachment of component parts, broken components, or leakage. This breakage may result in delay of procedure
