Lack of assurance of sterility
The firm discovered a software issue associated with the Image-Com module/clinical application package (CAP) interface for 3D application in the ARENA software, where measurements from one study might be stored to another study.
PHANTOM CS DISTRACTION SCREW, 12 MM, STERILE, 5/BOX - Product Usage: intended to be used for distraction in the anterior approach to the cervical spine.
TeDan Surgical Innovations
Lack of pouch seal. Product is labelled as sterile.
Feeding tube plastic tethered closure cap may possibly fracture or break. Possible health hazards: (1) Enteral feeding and medication administration could be possibly delayed, until replacement tube is placed into patient (2) Patient could be unnecessarily overexposed to radiation if multiple x-rays are needed to confirm placement of a new tube, if x-ray is used as the placement confirmation method.
Potential risk of patient mix-up on analyzers due to software issues.

Percepta CRT-P MRI, Model Numbers: a) W1TR01, b) W1TR04, c) W4TR01, d) W4TR04
Medtronic Inc., Cardiac Rhythm and Heart Failure (CRHF)
There is a rare communication sequence during the first device interrogation with a SmartSync Device Manager that may result in the temporary suspension of some device features (i.e., battery measurements, Capture Management", Atrial Lead Position Check", EffectivCRT" algorithms, and AdaptivCRT"). This rare interaction results in temporary suspension of automatic threshold testing and output adjustments, and suspension of auto-optimization of CRT therapy. The issue is unlikely to result in clinical impact to the patient, and features are restored upon next programmer device interrogation or presence of a magnet.

When video laryngoscopy system users apply, twisting motions while connecting the blade in the HDMI port, or excessive torsion to the connection port, this force is transferred to the HDMI PCB, which may result in video synchronization interruption, loss of live image/blank screen, no cameras connected monitor warning, may present risk to patients, in which time to intubation is more critical.
