Specific lots of reprocessed electrophysiology and ultrasound catheters may contain small residual particulates. If devices with residual particulates on patient-contacting surfaces are used, there is a potential risk of an inflammatory response or systemic infection, and if particulate were to dislodge during use and contact circulating blood and/or the heart, it may produce a granulomatous reaction or thrombus formation, which may lead to cerebral or pulmonary embolism, or deep vein thrombosis.

Software version 3.35 of the Venclose digiRF Generator incorporates a catheter verification feature specifically designed to detect internal wiring anomalies in Venclose EVSRF Ablation Catheters prior to clinical use. This automated diagnostic check is executed immediately upon catheter connection to the generator, occurring before the procedure interface becomes accessible. When a catheter fails this verification process, the generator displays a Red X indicator on the screen without accompanying error codes, effectively disabling catheter functionality. However, BD has determined that software version 3.35 generates false positive failures due to temperature-dependent verification parameters, incorrectly flagging properly functioning Venclose EVSRF Ablation Catheters as defective when the catheter temperature is not at steady state during the check initiation.

The subject product emits unsafe level of UVC radiation (i.e., the product reaches the exposure limit for Risk Group 3 (high risk) in about 2.2 minutes). The product has a radiation safety defect, in that these radiation emissions are unnecessary to the accomplishment of the product s primary purpose of disinfecting objects and surfaces, and create a risk of skin and/or eye injuries to user and nearby persons.

VITROS Chemistry Products LAC Slides on VITROS XT 3400 and VITROS XT 7600 Systems are experiencing an increased occurrence of calibration failure related to lots from coating 0130 and above with Condition Code TH4-63J during calibration, causing the delay of lac test results and potentially impact patient management. The issue was identified by QuidelOrtho through an increase in customer complaints compared to the historical baseline with average failure rate of 1% for coating 0130 in 2025 while average of failure rate for other coating was 0.06% in 2025 and average of failure rate for all coatings is 0.03% for 2024.

Two new potential laser safety failure modes have been identified in the product design. Overcurrent of laser diode, and a fail-unsafe mode. The failure modes have never been found to occur in these models, whether in the field or factory, but could potentially occur under excessive force or extreme, continuous vibration.
