Some Senographe Pristina systems either have a missing or an incorrect X-Ray Warning label, which is a nonconformance to FDA Regulation 21 CFR ¿1020.30(j).

If a user incorrectly places the Acquisition Module into the Acquisition Module Holder, it can result in excessive bending and wear of the Acquisition Trunk Cable. This is visible as a damaged sheath or exposed wires. If a damaged Acquisition Trunk Cable is not recognized and removed from service, the cable can overheat with continued use.

The Ultrasound-Guided Attenuation Parameter (UGAP) measurement data may display inaccurate values representing liver steatosis. This could potentially lead to inappropriate clinical decisions impacting overall care.

GE HealthCare has become aware of a non-conformance to 21 CFR 1020.30 (k) in certain OEC 9800 and OEC 9900 Elite C-arm Systems. Specifically, impacted systems are missing the full layer of lead tape in the collimator covers, which will lead to a small increase in radiation exposure to the patient and/or operator. The missing lead tape is not detectable by the user.

If this occurs, it can result in overheating of an MR conditional implant.
