Inflation Device used during cardiovascular procedures may leak in the indeflator at the hose rotating luer or at the gauge, which could lead to air embolism.

Weak seals may result in a breach of sterility, which may not be detectable to the user. This can lead to increased risk of contamination and infection.

A software bug within the Gen 2 StatStrip Hospital Meter firmware leads to transmission of erroneous glucose patient test results to a healthcare institution's data management system (DMS) at healthcare sites using WiFi if a user navigates to the Review Results screen while the meter is in the process of transmitting the current glucose test result to the DMS. The risk of this software defect is erroneously high or low glucose results being documented in a patient's medical record, which may lead to incorrect treatment.

Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics is recalling their epoc Blood Analysis System because of a software malfunction that occurs when specific criteria are met that can result in the incorrect patient name being assigned to a blood measurement by the device if the user of the device does not ensure verification of the correct patient name. The software malfunction has the potential to impact patient safety via misdiagnosis and/or mistreatment by a clinician if the wrong patient information is saved with the test result from the subject device.

5R 16MM knee tibial insert package may contain knee tibial insert 3R 14MM and vice versa, which may cause surgical delay to get a new product.

A software bug within the meter firmware leads to transmission of erroneous glucose and/or ketone patient test results to a healthcare institution's data management system (DMS) at healthcare sites using WiFi if a user navigates to the Review Results screen while the meter is in the process of transmitting the current test result to the DMS.

SARS-CoV-2/Flu A/B/RSV Assay Kit may erroneously produce SARS-CoV-2 false positive results.

Attachments may not mate with the tooth as intended in the digital treatment design.

Surgical Patties & Surgical Strips in specific lots of Custom Convenience Kits were found to contain higher-than-expected levels of endotoxin within the raw material used to produce sterile Codman Surgical Patties and Strips that may have resulted in out-of-specification levels of endotoxin in those finished goods

Knee insert package may contain an acetabular system, which may cause surgical delay to get a new product.

Bronchoscopic visualization system power supplies have defective semiconductor components that may fail unexpectedly, which could result in an aborted procedure since it is a non recoverable failure. Manual removal of the bronchoscope when the system is not functioning can increase the chance of injury to the tissues of the lung as the scope is withdrawn including the possibility of pneumothorax.

Due to a programmer software anomaly, during finalizing of the leadless pacemaker system, a specific sequence of programmer actions combined with a loss of telemetry during a small window (<2 seconds) may cause the finalization step to fail. If this occurs, the Programmer displays a loss of telemetry detected window, and there is no pacing.
