Software defect, when an image has non-square pixel spacing, the reference/localizer line is incorrectly placed on the scout image in the XERO Viewet, may display the incorrect crosshair/line position on the non-coplanar/scout image with respect to the axial slice location. Inaccurate placement of reference lines or crosshairs have potential risk of misdiagnosis or mistreatment due to unintended shifts in the display of anatomical locations.

🏥 Medical Devices • 6,627 recalls
Devices with Option CP2 and initially programmed to software version P.01.01 were configured incorrectly at the factory. Therefore, Enhanced ECG Capabilities provided by Option CP2 were not enabled in these devices. Without Option C01 Full Arrhythmia, the device will not provide the yellow alarms for enhanced arrhythmia detection. This is a retrospectively reported recall from 6/14/23.
Quantum Surgical has become aware that a component (central axis) inside the Needle Guide product (product number 02-0027) is the subject of rust.
MEDLINE Automatic Digital Blood Pressure Monitor, REF MDS1001UT.
MEDLINE INDUSTRIES, LP - Northfield
It has been determined that certain Blood Pressure Monitors containing a faulty microchip have failed to power on or have shown display screen issues after the initial few uses, as well as overheating at times making the unit warm to the touch.
When the DxI 9000 Access Immunoassay Analyzer with system software version 1.16.2 and prior is configured to automatically request a calibration order, the instrument can process the order with expired calibrator material. If the calibration curve is generated with an expired calibration material lot, this may lead to a hazardous situation of erroneously high or low patient results reported to the physicians.
Synapsys software versions 4.20, 4.30, 5.10, 5.20, or 5.30 and utilizing the in-line breakpoint feature, an error is occurring where BD Synapsys will incorrectly display breakpoints for organisms that do not have defined breakpoints in CLSI or EUCAST. This occurs when the identified organism is included in the same interpretive group as a species for which there is a specific breakpoint. May result in either a false susceptible or false resistant result. A false susceptible result can cause inadequate or incomplete antibiotic treatment due to the use of an ineffective antibiotic, and a false resistant result may limit access to a preferred antibiotic regimen with possible elongation of therapy

FENG CHUN YUAN MEDICAL EQUIPMENT (SHENZHEN)CO.,LTD
The "DVOT brand" rapid test kits have not obtained the necessary authorization to be sold in the United States.
The reason for this recall is Healgen Scientific Ltd. has determined that their Urinary Reagent Strip products have shown reduced sensitivity, or potential false negative results for the detection of urinary protein by way of uneven color fading on the total protein test pad. This could lead to a delay in the identification of potential kidney diseases, their evaluation, and/or other conditions associated with elevated protein levels in urine and subsequently a delay in patient treatment.

Philips North America
If the DIVA touch display generates touch inputs without user interaction, due to possibility of the erroneous acknowledgement of a patient alarm, there is a potential for a delay in the detection of a change in a patient condition which prompted the alarm to generate. Although unlikely, this could potentially result in a patient harm.

If ultrasound systems with software, are changed from factory default to : 1) Milliliters per second (ml/sec, mL/sec) or 2) Milliliters per minute (ml/min, mL/min); then systems will perform incorrect unit conversion of liters to milliliters using multiplier 100 instead of 1000, resulting values 10x smaller than actual, which could contribute misdiagnosis or negatively influence patient management
