Affected lead models may experience gradually rising LVSI measurements in association with calcification of the defibrillation lead coils. The issue may lead to early lead replacement. Most serious harm is death or need for cardiac resuscitation.

During endoscopic procedures using a combination of the video processor EPK-i8020c and i20c series video endoscope, the observed image can become reddish or dark. Users have observed smoke like steam and noted that the light guide at the tip is hot during use / after the endoscope is removed from the patient and may cause thermal injury to the patient s mucous membrane.

Generations 67 and above of VITROS Ca Slides are experiencing an increased occurrence of Condition Code TH4-63J during calibration on VITROS XT 3400 and VITROS XT 7600 Systems, causing calibration failures that delay calcium test results and potentially impact patient management. The imaging reflectometer algorithm detects excessive "spikes" (imperfections) in slide images and generates the TH4-63J condition code when the threshold of 600 spikes is exceeded. Updated analysis revealed a 19-fold increase in failure rates from 0.0043% (2024 baseline) to 0.082% for Generation 67+ slides in 2025, with 100% of calibrator failures occurring at the lowest concentration level. This can result in delayed diagnosis and treatment of conditions such as hypercalcemic crisis, parathyroid disorders, and other calcium-related emergencies requiring urgent intervention.

The internal label affixed to the sample tip rack is incorrectly labeled as reagent tip racks. When scanned by the Agility instrument, the tip rack is misidentified as a different tip type, rendering it incompatible with the system and preventing use which causes a delay in obtaining patient results.

Anorectal manometry procedure kit outer kit label is mislabeled with an incorrect expiration date; the manufacturing date was used in place of the expiration date. All inner labels on kit components display the correct expiration date.

Cannulated fenestrated polyaxial screws may be incorrectly labeled

Due to manufacturing issue, neurostimulator device may experience "cable disconnect" error message and interruption to stimulation output.

Multiple complaints indicating lower than expected quality control (QC) results and in some instances QC recovery below the lower limit of the package insert acceptance range when testing is performed with HemosIL Liquid Anti-Xa and HemosIL Heparin Calibrator. In some complaints, failure to pass QC resulted in patient testing delays.

Reports of delayed access to medication in automated dispensing cabinets because of the override/Add Item workflow.

GE HealthCare has become aware that for certain MR systems (SIGNA Artist, SIGNA Voyager, Discovery MR450 1.5T, Optima MR450w 1.5T, SIGNA Architect, SIGNA Premier, SIGNA UHP, Discovery MR750 3.0T, Discovery MR750w 3.0T, SIGNA Hero, SIGNA PET/MR, SIGNA Artist Evo, SIGNA Voyager AIR (China Only), SIGNA Architect AIR (China Only), SIGNA Premier XT (China Only), SIGNA Premier Elite (China Only), SIGNA Premier MAX (China Only), SIGNA Hero XT (China Only), SIGNA Hero Elite (China Only), SIGNA Hero MAX (China Only), SIGNA PET/MR AIR (China Only), SIGNA PET/MR AIR Plus (China Only), the planned maintenance steps to check the functionality of the caster locks on the MR patient table may not have been performed.

Inconsistent size terminology and color coding used on labeling

High pressure tubing may relax over time causing it to partially separate from the connector resulting in a void that can trap air in the line. Use of the affected product may result in the trapped air being introduced into the patient.

Access Thyroglobulin reagent lot 439163 may generate erroneously high patient results. Falsely increased Access Thyroglobulin results may lead a physician to pursue unnecessary diagnostic imaging studies and/or inappropriate therapy adjustments in patients being monitored for residual or recurrent thyroid cancer.

When fenestrated analysis with clock measurements is started in diagnostic bioimaging software (intended to measure/visualize cardiovascular structures) and the 12h position of a single clock is changed, other clock measurements are not updated relative to the new 12h position which may cause stent graft fenestrations at incorrect position, which may lead to blood flow disruption and tissue damage
