Supplier changes resulted in a fit issue with the Contrast Flow Control Valve (CFCV) interface on the Avanta Injector System. Multiple customer reports indicate that the stopcock cannot be reliably engaged with the CFCV snap interface. In instances where engagement is achieved through applied force, the connection is unstable, and the stopcock may disengage before or during contrast injection, leading to procedure interruption.

Labeling error: MEDRAD Mark 7 Arterion Injection System Syringes (ART 700 SYR) labeled as Twist & Go Syringes (TAG 150 SYR)
Specific lots of MEDRAD Stellant FLEX 150 mL syringe kits may have holes and/or cracks that have the potential to allow fluid to leak out of the syringe.
If the head mount knob is not properly tightened and the operator directly uses the injector head to move the unit, it may become disengaged, causing the injector head to become loose or fall.
Bayer has received reports of loose particulate in the filter when the dust cap is removed. Bayer conducted further testing confirming the dust cap may generate particulate which may potentially enter the fluid path.
The torque wrench used on the ceiling column assembly during a recent service visit was outside of the torque specification, potentially overtightening the bolts. The overtightening of bolts may compromise the structural integrity of the system which could lead to the OCS disengaging from the ceiling mount and this may cause injury to the patient or the operator.
