GE HealthCare has become aware of the potential that incorrect torque has been applied to certain bolts of the Definium Tempo and Definium Tempo Pro products which may result in a potential fall of elements of the Overhead Tube Suspension (OTS) assembly.

Firm was informed of an event in which the structural integrity of the MR system components failed due to unintended excessive pressure buildup of helium gas during a magnet quench. If the system is unable to contain the pressured helium gas due to an unforeseen blockage in the system, risks to patients and/or operators that may lead to injury or death include chemical exposure (i.e. helium gas) that may expand to surrounding rooms, contusion caused by debris, and asphyxia.

Under certain circumstances, information from HL7 messages received by Stratus PACS/Imaging Share systems has been incorrectly associated with another patient's study.

During planned monitoring of data post-release of Software Version 3.8.0 an increased occurrence of software issues relating to unresponsive subsystems, unresponsive user interface (sometimes referred to as a screen freeze), and/or printer disconnections was identified. The consequence of these issues would be a delay in reporting results due to the required system shutdowns to recover the system. This delay in reporting results could occur during any assay, including which the speed of the result is deemed critical or STAT and could result in a delay of treatment in a patient. Due to the release strategy of this software version, the user could not update the system but a field engineer had to manually install each affected system.

Due to a manufacturing defect, certain Para-Pak vials may be at risk for leakage.

Fiberscopes do not have adequate data to support that the suction flow rate meets the device specification.

IFU update

Plastic vials contain a manufacturing defect may cause an increased risk of leakage and presents a risk of incidental exposure to biological hazards associated with direct contact with the patient specimen.

There is to an increase in complaints related to failure alarms for Wet Cassette Integrity Test occurring on the Amia devices.

Mathematical modeling of the 4Kscore with and without DRE information was recently performed on over 3,000 specimens. DRE information is a required component of The 4Kscore Test.
