Olympus Corporation of the Americas
Product balloon issues: inflating, deflating and/or retrieving the devices; reports of bursting and leaking and events involving foreign body in patient and prolonged procedure.
AtriCure has identified certain lots of tank hose assemblies where a second-tier supplier provided incorrect tank hose assemblies. These tank hose assemblies were provided with an outer sheathing that does not have required pin perforations and the inner tube of the hose is not the correct material.
Philips North America
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.
Vortex Surgical
Reason for the voluntary recall is residue was identified on the two forceps tips of a customer in Korea. The residue is associated with one lot of forceps tips which were utilized in two lots of ACTU8 Adaptive Forceps Tips occurring in 0.25% of those lots.

GE HealthCare has become aware of elevated levels of formaldehyde when the EVair or EVair 03 (Jun-Air) optional compressors are used with the CARESCAPE R860 or Engstr¿m Carestation/Pro ventilators, respectively. These elevated results were observed in preliminary testing that was conducted at an elevated room temperature of 40oC (104oF), at the lowest possible flow condition of 2 L/min (worstcase, minimum bias flow with no additional ventilation), and all of the gas being supplied from the compressor (i.e., FiO2 of 21% / no supplemental oxygen). GE HealthCare is continuing to evaluate the root cause for these elevated levels of formaldehyde. While these test conditions are not representative of typical clinical use conditions,GE HealthCare is taking this action to further reduce the potential for patient exposure.

Centered glenosphere box may contain an eccentric glenosphere.
During an internal investigation, ACS identified that several components were "piggybacked" to ACS trays and subjected to the ACS sterilization process. There is no supporting documentation stating the "piggybacked" components were assessed to determine if they were suitable for exposure to elevated temperatures for an extended period of time and further exposure to sterilization. As a result, the piggybacked components may (1) have a loss/lack of functionality, (2) loss of drug efficacy, if applicable, and (3) may have had higher than specified EO residuals.
Needle Holder MB215R was inadvertently distributed as MB362R. Similarly, MB362R was distributed as MB215R during the affected distribution date range. The issue may lead to a short delay in procedure.
