All Recalls

Sterility assurance for saline included in surgical kits cannot be guaranteed.

Convenience kits were manufactured and distributed with components which were subsequently recalled by Nurse Assist.

Retrospective reporting for the release of Technical Bulletin IMP-2643 AIC Version 8.5 Software Update Available. The update resolved an issue in version 8.4 where a pump was not recognized by the AIC.

Generator may fail due to a potential short circuit in the Printed Circuit Board Assembly (PCBA) in PoInt EVR (Power Invertor). If a short circuit occurs, it will cause the fuses to trip and the system will become non-functional due to power loss, resulting in a potential delay of procedure or termination of procedure.

Level 3 masks were produced on alternate non-validated production equipment that were not included as part of the initial qualification of the products.

VAREX changed the manufacturing of the internal board, and the detectors displayed abnormal images. Internal board of the X-ray flat panel detector may display abnormal images, such as horizontal stripes, which may lead to the inability to complete an ongoing exam, or the patient may need to be examined with another x-ray system.

Devices without transmural drainage holes may be mislabeled as devices with transmural drainage holes, or vice versa. Potential health impact includes extending procedure time, unplanned device removal, secondary procedure, cholangitis, cholecystitis, and/or pain. The GORE¿ VIABIL¿ Short Wire Biliary Endoprosthesis is a flexible, self-expanding endoprosthesis designed to maintain luminal patency of the common bile duct which may be obstructed. The endoprosthesis is radially compressed and secured onto the distal end of a catheter-based delivery system for deployment. The catheter provides a means for accessing and implanting the GORE¿ VIABIL¿ Short Wire Biliary Endoprosthesis at the target site in the biliary tract.

Due to an error in the manufacturing process, it is possible that an incorrect plunger has been fitted to some capsules. This plunger does not contain the correct reactive component for Ionolux. When these capsules are activated, curing is significantly delayed and incomplete. Processing according to the instructions for use is not possible.

Convenience kits were manufactured and distributed with components which were subsequently recalled by Nurse Assist.

Disk Bay may not perform as intended. System may stop functioning and imaging may not be possible, resulting in delay of procedure.

The LV Mass (2D Bullet) equation may be calculated incorrectly, resulting in a variance in the mass of the left ventricle (LV Mass). If used as a main factor for diagnosis, there is a risk of misdiagnosis or incorrect treatment plan of a patient, resulting in long-term health consequences or serious deterioration of health.

1:2 speed increasing surgical handpieces have been incorrectly laser marked during production. The specific laser marking should read 1:2, but instead it reads 1:1 on the body of the handpiece

OPTIMIZER devices may cease to deliver CCM therapy if the device incorrectly detects a charging error. This may cause patients to experience heart failure symptoms similar to before implantation of the device.

Kits should contain Filter Straws with Standard Luer Connections however the kits contain Filter Straws with Neuraxial connectors preventing interface with the other components of the kit.
