Centricity Universal Viewer measurements saved into a DICOM Grayscale Presentation State are incorrect in subsequent views for exams containing series with different pixel sizes and may lead to a potential misdiagnosis.

Slow degradation of plastic insulation used in the PSU DC plug of the DIGORA Optime, Scan eXam, Express, GXPS-500 systems may result in short circuiting which may cause heating and melting. The melting may generate smoke and eventually cause the PSU to fail.

Homocysteine Assay May Cause Elevated Results in the Folate Assay

There is a potential for an uneven plastic encapsulation of the magnet ring during the molding process and partial axial displacement. This issue could cause uneven wear during use, cause exposure of the magnet to solution, and thereby result in corrosion and the presence of iron.

The firm became aware that three (3) lots of the NAV Suction Instruments contain calibration issues causing incorrect tip orientation display in the system.

GE Healthcare has become aware that there is a potential for a loose cable connection inside specific manufactured anesthesia devices. This would cause a loss of mechanical ventilation and the system will provide high priority audio and visual alarms. Loss of mechanical ventilation could lead to hypoxia if the clinician does not intervene.

One brand of batteries have a small dimensional difference in the negative button terminal, which, when the batteries are inserted incorrectly, can create the possibility for the battery terminals to make reverse contact. This reverse contact can cause a potential for overheating.

The firm has become aware that the sensor cover, a component of the single-use navigation kit may contain microbial contamination. A source of microbial contamination has been identified in a raw product used to manufacture the tip of the cover.This could result in direct exposure of the intra-cardiovascular, intra-lymphatic or neurological system to a level of endotoxin sufficient to produce a pyrogenic response.

Beckman Coulter has become aware of an issue affecting Specific Gravity chemistry settings for the iChemVELOCITY Urine Chemistry System that prevents the trigger of a chemistry system flag S3 and may result in erroneous Specific Gravity (SG) results.

The lidstock label incorrectly displays a MR (Magnetic Resonance ) Conditional symbol (instead of a MR Unsafe symbol) in reference to a component of the kit
