Reports of pressure relief manifold venting gas below the standard pressure.
The firm has become aware that the Snapshot Trackers were not manufactured in accordance with specifications and could potentially lead to navigational inaccuracies, which may result in patient injury, e.g. nerve damage or neurological deficit/dysfunction
Editing a static arc beam may unexpectedly set the MU of the beam to its initial default value of 200 MU. If the bug is triggered, the dose is invalidated and needs to be recalculated before the plan can be approved or exported.
There is a potential performance issue as detected by an under-recovery of sample results during routine testing.

Potential for one of the four temporal electrode cables used in with the ElectroTek EEG system having incorrect placement labels which could lead to incorrect placement of electrode for an EEG study.
A manufacturing error caused a single lot of 10mm active tip length Cannulas to be labeled as 5mm active tip length cannulas.

The AIA-2000 bar code scanners depend on the quiet zone to help identify the bar code. The lack of an adequate quiet zone can cause the bar code scanner to confuse the bar codes with text or graphics resulting in the scanner ignoring a valid symbol. This results in an error in reading the barcode: Error Code 2220 Unable to read barcode on reagent bottle. In some cases, the quiet zone is too short and an error in barcode reading occurs. The problem is intermittent and not all vials (6 vials are available per set) have been reported to fail. The only risk to patients or users is a delay in results. The company recommends (optional) that customers pre-screen the vials to identify affected products. Customers can contact the company for reimbursement of any affected products. The company has implemented barcode checks as a temporary solution and will replace the barcode printer on the production line for products beginning with lot B*01898.

While the product meets all safety and efficacy criteria, long term exposure of 3M Durapore Advanced Surgical Tape to continuous high moisture clinical applications has not fully met all of 3M s performance expectations. This use environment may cause tape bond failure, leading the tape to not perform as intended. Further, the tape fibers may fray which could be accidentally ingested or aspirated.
