The Varisoft infusion set is used in conjunction with tandem insulin pumps. The defect reported was damage to the connector piece during manufacturing. This damage results in the connector becoming detached more easily from the insulin set than expected, requiring less force to disconnect than intended. Disconnection, when not detected, for example during sleep, leads to missed basal dosing. which in turn can result in elevated blood glucose and ketone level (nocturnal hyperglycemia). Diabetic ketoacidosis.
Channel air drying process was not validated, and that a small percentage of scopes returned to customers after repair had a wet channel. Water remaining in the channel of the endoscopes has the potential for contamination that could lead to the risk of infection

Devices may leak as a result of a manufacturing issue. Leakage may result in a delay of therapy, increase risk of bloodstream infection (BSI), and may expose both patients and healthcare workers to hazardous medication. There is also the potential for life-threatening situations to occur requiring additional medical intervention.

GE HealthCare has become aware of an issue where images from two different patients may be contained in a single study, when stored in Centricity PACS-IW V3.7.x, Centricity PACS-IW with Universal Viewer V5.0 and Centricity Universal Viewer V6.0 with PACS-IW foundation.
Upstream occlusion alarm may sound when no occlusion exists, and the device will stop pumping. Interruption to the infusion of high-risk medications may lead to hemodynamic instability requiring medical intervention to prevent permanent impairment to body structures or body functions. In some cases, this may be life-threatening or may lead to death.
When using Universal Viewer or Centricity Universal Viewer with Workflow Manager (WFM), if a third-party reporting application is used to launch exams, it could display information on a different patient than WFM and the Viewer.
