Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics has received complaints for low recovery of Magnesium (MG) Quality Control (QC) and patient samples following calibration of MG with the Dimension Vista® CHEM 1 CAL, lot 3GM081. Investigation by Siemens confirms that QC and patient samples under-recovers MG by 0.25 mg/dL [0.10 mmol/L] across the assay range following calibration with 3GM081.
Two malfunctions posing potential risk to patients were identified with Siemens Ysio Max, AXIOM Luminos dRF Max, Uroskop Omnia Max, and Luminos Agile Max systems with a specific set of serial numbers that will cause lost images due to an automatic Radiology Information System (RIS) worklist update, thus causing examinations to be repeated. Image label may also be displayed incorrectly after images

Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. is performing a field correction because we recently detected a rubber isolator with unfavorable aging properties. The function of the rubber isolator, which is situated within the rotate motor mounting assembly, may degrade over time and may impact motor support. The event does not pose a hazard by itself but could lead to a rupture of the drive belt which in t

There is a specific Extraction Tray lot containing Tips that may slightly increase the occurrence of Process SP Processing Error when used due to the Processor SP experiencing difficulty releasing the Tip to the final location in the Tip Assembly. The difficult releasing the Tip can result in a Processing Error and occasionally the Tip to be dropped into the Processor SP.

During production, excess metal (aluminum) debris was found stuck to the cling plastic that covers the device's pole assembly. The metallic debris could affect system performance due to the potential for a failure to power up or loss of power. This could result in the loss of monitoring and a delay in diagnosis of the patient.
