The bolt holding the control panel of the ACUSON SC2000 in a fixed position may fail and the Control panel cannot be locked into position.
This recall has been initiated because use of the impacted DPIs could result in erroneous testing results potentially leading to incorrect diagnosis and incorrect treatment. The magnitude of error for VO2 or VCO2 parameters could be approximately 20% with use of the impacted product.
Calibration factors in the pump overwritten during a programming step. The force sensor could send a lower signal value to the pump processor, with loss of prime warnings, occlusion alarms and the pump unable to detect a cartridge during the prime sequence. Field action initiated 8/29/2011.

If the SpO2 or RRa value is violating the respective alarm limit at the time of switching to monitoring mode, the monitor does not issue visual and audible alarms.
A required quality control test was not performed during installation associated with the software of the Revolution CT scanner.
In case of a system crash, images may not be written to the hard disk and this may result in inconsistencies in the database. In case of a system crash (e.g. blue screen, power outage) images may not be written from cache to the hard disk and might get lost.
the Instructions for Use (IFU) were inadvertently removed from the kit.
