The BIOS battery may deplete faster than initially anticipated during the design phase. When the battery is depleted, the start-up process of the system will be halted, and the system will not start. No user messages are shown before the battery is low on power or depleted.

The bovine carotid arteries used to produce the impacted grafts from affected lots were sourced using raw material from a supplier that had not been reviewed and approved by the appropriate regulatory authority.

Potential for false resistant results for Colistin (cs02n) with multi-drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii complex used in specific cards

The BIOS battery may deplete faster than initially anticipated during the design phase. When the battery is depleted, the start-up process of the system will be halted, and the system will not start. No user messages are shown before the battery is low on power or depleted.

Potential for breaches in the sterile barrier packaging, compromising sterility assurance.

Convenience kits labeled as sterile have not gone through the sterilization process.

The BIOS battery may deplete faster than initially anticipated during the design phase. When the battery is depleted, the start-up process of the system will be halted, and the system will not start. No user messages are shown before the battery is low on power or depleted.

There is a potential for an ice blockage to form or currently exist within the magnet venting system. In the event of a quench, helium gas may be unable to escape through the designed venting paths, leading to a pressure build-up within the helium containment system. This pressure build-up could ultimately rupture the helium containment system, potentially resulting in a helium leak into the scanning room.

Specific lots of reprocessed electrophysiology and ultrasound catheters may contain small residual particulates. If devices with residual particulates on patient-contacting surfaces are used, there is a potential risk of an inflammatory response or systemic infection, and if particulate were to dislodge during use and contact circulating blood and/or the heart, it may produce a granulomatous reaction or thrombus formation, which may lead to cerebral or pulmonary embolism, or deep vein thrombosis.

On a clinical analyzer, when ordering a Clinical Chemistry (CC) combination test simultaneously with an Immunoassay (IA) test, if the IA test is processed between the CC tests, CC sample status will remain In Progress with no errors, may cause processing delays.

Dental implants were imported under temperature and storage conditions that do not comply with the instructions for use and product labeling so there may be packaging damage, which could compromise product quality and performance.
