Potential presence of elevated endotoxin levels that exceed the specification limit
The analyzers fail on S7950 (Range +) QC measurements due to the hemolyzer cuvettes, a subcomponent of the optical system which measures ctHb and derivates. In a cuvette with light shunt, some of the received light has not been transmitted through the sample. This will lead to a perturbed and non-linear absorbance spectrum which results in measurement errors.
VACUETTE Blood Transfer Unit. Lot no. A19024NX. Expiration date: 2022-02-07 - Product Usage: The Blood Transfer Unit is used to transfer blood from a syringe into the evacuated blood collection tube.
C.A. Greiner & Sohne Gesellschaftmbh
While transferring blood the needle may dislodged and remain in the tube stopper which may cause needle stick injury or blood leakage.
Potential presence of elevated endotoxin levels that exceed the specification limit
Electrolyte reference reagent, used for clinical laboratory testing to determine CO2 in human serum or plasma for diagnosis and treatment of potentially serious disorders associated with changes in the body acid-base balance, has a low pH and may cause CO2 calibration failures, high CO2 quality control recoveries, and false high patient results which can lead to delay in treatment.

There may be a slightly protruding rivet on the distal end of the laparoscopic grasper which has the potential for tissue to catch on it during use and lead to tissue damage.
The identified problem is an erroneous association between the carrier and the sample tube caused by a communication error between the firmware of the Interface Modules and the Automation software. This problem can occur only when one of these Interface Modules is put off-line after a carrier in their secondary lane is physically returned on the main track and then put back on-line when the carrier is used to transport another tube.
There is a potential for thrombus formation on balloons prepped and staged in the vasculature for long durations. All users, such as those performing lead extraction cases may not be aware of this risk. It was determined that current labeling is insufficient to ensure all potential users minimize the time the balloon remains in vasculature. If left in too long it could lead to embolization.
The firm discovered a potential manufacturing deviation of the yoke of the Body Weight Support (BWS) Light that in rare occasions may result in the yoke detaching from the cable guide.

Nikon Metrology XTH cabinet x-ray Systems which includes variations STH225, XTH225ST, and MCT225.

The manufacturer identified a risk that their products might fail to comply with the cabinet x-ray system performance standard limit on x-ray emissions [21 CFR 1020.40(c)(1)] due to an insufficient safety margin for the means of attachment of a piece of interior x-ray shielding. Double sided industrial tape was used for attachment - there have been only 2 instances of detachment and although the piece of shielding detached it remained mostly in place supported by wires that pass through that piece of shielding. The repair is accomplished by adding a bracket to fasten the piece of shielding securely to the inside of the x-ray system. Mfr reports that no systems were found to have exceeded the emission limit when checked prior to repair.

Cios Spin Image-Intensified Fluoroscopic X-Ray System, Model Numbers VA30-10308194
Siemens Medical Solutions USA
The unplugging of the main cable on the monitor trolley from the X10 connector can cause an unsafe electrical voltage (up to 67,6 V DC) at the X10 connector. This can result in an electrical shock if the user or other persons touch the contact pins of the X10 connector.
