All Recalls

Due to convenience kits containing a kit component that is under a recall action for improper use.

Endoscopy/bronchoscopy/urology devices may have a strain relief defect with some cart and tower power cords that may cause an electrical short, which may lead to system shutdown, which can lead to prolonged procedure or case conversion, and if the user (e.g., operating room staff) touches exposed wires or conductive fluids in contact with the exposed wires, there is a chance of electrical shock.

Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) calibrator card has an incorrect barcode linked to incorrect information, that may allow successful system calibration, but the TSH results obtained could be higher than expected.

It has been determined that certain Blood Pressure Monitors containing a faulty microchip have failed to power on or have shown display screen issues after the initial few uses, as well as overheating at times making the unit warm to the touch.

Respiratory pathogen panel may report an elevated rate (7.6% predicted probability of occurrence) of non-specific hMPV target (human Metapneumovirus) results, risk identified predominantly in clinical samples that present positivity for another target, leading to an erroneous co-infection result, can potentially result in hMPV false positives.

There is a potential for pinholes in the applicator pouch film which creates a sterility concern.

Due to convenience kits containing a kit component that is under a recall action for improper use.

Anterior locking tabs on the Triathlon Universal Baseplate are out of specification which may prevent engagement of either of the two locking tabs with the locking wire of the tibial insert.

There is a defect in the air-in-line software algorithm.

Contamination with foreign substance matter

Labeling error with a mismatch between the shelf box serial number label and the serial number of the lead provided in the box.

Respiratory pathogen panel may report an elevated rate (7.6% predicted probability of occurrence) of non-specific hMPV target (human Metapneumovirus) results, risk identified predominantly in clinical samples that present positivity for another target, leading to an erroneous co-infection result, can potentially result in hMPV false positives.

Stryker Neurovascular has observed that devices with Out of United States (OUS) approved Instructions for Use (IFU) and Packaging Labels (pouch and carton), different configurations, have been erroneously distributed to customers in the US.

When the DxI 9000 Access Immunoassay Analyzer with system software version 1.16.2 and prior is configured to automatically request a calibration order, the instrument can process the order with expired calibrator material. If the calibration curve is generated with an expired calibration material lot, this may lead to a hazardous situation of erroneously high or low patient results reported to the physicians.

Synapsys software versions 4.20, 4.30, 5.10, 5.20, or 5.30 and utilizing the in-line breakpoint feature, an error is occurring where BD Synapsys will incorrectly display breakpoints for organisms that do not have defined breakpoints in CLSI or EUCAST. This occurs when the identified organism is included in the same interpretive group as a species for which there is a specific breakpoint. May result in either a false susceptible or false resistant result. A false susceptible result can cause inadequate or incomplete antibiotic treatment due to the use of an ineffective antibiotic, and a false resistant result may limit access to a preferred antibiotic regimen with possible elongation of therapy
