Diagnostic Equipment

A software bug may lead to one image to be assigned to two different patients, which could potentially affect medical diagnosis.

Potential exists for one or more axes of the robotic stand to become blocked by their safety brakes; In the event the axis is blocked by its safety brake, the robotic stand can no longer perform the intended movements

When using the Table Up/Down button, the system may experience Error 80, which locks the geometry in that specific state, requiring the intervention of a service Engineer. Additionally, the thermos switch, which handles power down of the unit in case of transformer overheating, was installed incorrectly at production.

Siemens became aware of an issue of incorrect use of the bypass key overriding the built-in collision control creating risk of collision with obstacles or persons when the operator uses the override function.

The DP-30 displays an incorrect needle-guide bracket when used with the 65EC10EA model transducer.

These 18 probes may have mis-wiring in the inner cables, causing decreased sensitivity and thus resulting in lower peak velocity readings.

Leaks or disconnect near the sampling port of the Intra Abdominal Pressure Monitoring Device which could lead to the potential of inaccurate readings. The measurement should be confirmed with other means, such as a new IAP system of the same kind or by choosing other diagnostic means such as but not limited to alternative systems, such as open IAP measurement options or exchanging the tubing system, which does not require invasive maneuvers.

Incorrect labeling; it was identified that some Datapad devices contained incorrect labels. Specifically the manufacturing date in the production identifier was incorrect and the manufacturing date on the unique device identifier label was labeled in the format of yy-mm-dd instead of yyyy-mm-dd.

Inability to dose the test strips, may result in a temporary inability to get a result that could lead to a delay in treatment and/or therapy decisions

The frequency of calibration for the Genius Tympanic Thermometer as stated in the operating manual may not ensure that thermometers always remain within the stated accuracy range (¿ 0.2¿C for Genius 2 and ¿ 0.3¿C for Genius 3 thermometers). The measurement readings drift upwards over time, which means that the thermometers could exceed the upper stated accuracy tolerance of +0.2¿C for Genius 2 or +0.3¿C for Genius 3.

Incomplete seals on the sterile package may compromise the sterility

It has been reported that use of the mobile receiver with software version SW10617 rev 4.0.1.048 have reported: 1. the receiver becoming stuck on initialization screen when powering on. This will cause patients not to be able to receive glucose values or alerts; 2. Reinitialization of the receiver without user interaction. If this occurs, the receiver will either reboot and operate normally or require the user to press the Select button on the receiver in order to resume normal operation. In this situation, the user is provided an audio and vibratory alert every 5 minutes. Until the select button is pressed, patients will not receive glucose values or alerts.

It was identified that due to a potential installation workflow issue, the MR system date could be set incorrectly. The system's date and time setting are used to populate the DICOM header information on images. This could result is an inaccurate date recorded on the images.
