The Quadrature Body Coil (QBC) seal adhesive may fail, creating sharp edges that may come in contact with patients. If the QBC seal becomes loose during the scanning process, the risk to the patient may include skin abrasions, bruises, lacerations, hair loss/entanglement, and tissue injury.

Three is the potential for the retractors to puncture through the sterile packaging.
Beckman Coulter is recalling their DxC 500 AU Clinical Chemistry Analyzer because a software error causes the analyzer to not run a requested calibration order in the following scenario: when a reagent blank or calibration is ordered during sample processing and then any of the components (R1 and/or R2) depletes to zero tests, the analyzer will not be able to complete the calibration request, and the calibration order will remain pending. No further calibration orders can be processed for any assays, and the instrument refuses to accept further sample processing order after the existing calibration curves are expired. Although in-process tests will be completed, this error can cause a delay in reporting subsequent test results. No further calibration orders can be processed for any assays which may cause a delay in reporting test results.

An issue with a raw material used to coat some surgical needles that may result in diminished performance and/or removal of some silicone needle coating during use.
There were reports of an increase in reactive negative controls and false positive results.
Cook Medical identified that devices from the affected device lots may contain the incorrectly sized embolization coil.

The high voltage capacitor may fail early in the product life cycle after delivery of surge voltages. When this failure occurs, the capacitor may produce smoke and a burning smell. In extremely rare instances a capacitor may cause a spark or excessive heat when an internal capacitor failure occurs.
Adapters may disconnect during setup or while in use, potentially interrupting ventilation. Any disconnection can result in severe consequences for neonates, including hypoxia, hypercapnia, and organ failure.
