Potential presence of rust on Coupler Forceps (GEM4183C).

Issue #1 affects Software Versions 6.0 SP7, SP7.0.1, SP7.0.2, SP7.0.3, SP8, SP8.0.1, SP8.0.a and SP8.0.2. When an image is flipped horizontally and vertically, the orientation markers appear correctly on the image to which they were applied. However, once new image rendering happens on this image or series (with scrolling; playing cin¿; maximizing or changing viewports/layouts; or synchronizing viewports and resizing the browser), the new image orientation is correctly maintained but the display of orientation markers can become incorrect. Issue #2 affects Software Versions 6.0 SP7, SP7.0.1, SP7.0.2, SP7.0.3, SP8, SP8.0.1, SP8.0.a, SP8.0.2, SP9 and SP9.0.1. When an image in a series is flipped and then rotated in Zero Footprint Viewer (ZFP), the orientation markers appear correctly on the image to which they were applied. However, once you navigate to another image in the series and the image you navigated to has a different orientation than the prior image from which you navigated, the new image orientation is correctly maintained but the display of orientation markers can become incorrect.

Software anomaly may incorrectly extend the on-analyzer stability time for a loaded VITROS Reagent.

The firm received consumer reports of the ceramic trocar tip of the Emprint ablation antenna disengaging from the needle shaft post-ablation. This can result in the tip remaining in the patient.

There have been reports of distal occlusion alarms during the use of SAPPHIRE Epidural Set Yellow-Striped administration sets.

Firm is offering advice to customers experiencing challenges when validating the calibration curve of the IgM kits. This is indicated by kit control values reporting outside the specified ranges.

HVAD Battery Charger units manufactured with wrong inductors.

Inspection process at the manufacturer found nonwoven material was used in specific lots of product that may break wile in use during the patient/resident transfer. Patient/resident might fall on the floor. IN consequence, the patient might sustain a major trauma, head injury - damage to tissue that is irreversible or may lead to death.

Tosoh Bioscience has become aware of a potential issue with the AIA-900 and AIA-2000 analyzers that could result in slippage of the incubator unit contained within the system. If the tension of the timing belt is not adjusted correctly, it is possible for a misalignment that will result in a mechanical error. Tosoh has taken the required actions to inspect the tension of the timing belt during preventative maintenance and correct the instruments where this issue has been observed. If incubator slippage occurs, the unit will cease to function, and a system error will be reported. If this occurs, there may be a delay in testing and reporting patient test results. There have been no reports of injury related to this issue.

Zimmer Biomet is conducting a lot specific medical device recall for two lots of the Orthopedic Salvage System (OSS) and the Comprehensive Shoulder System. The investigation determined that the Mini Humeral Stem is potentially labeled as the Bowed IM Stem lot. The associated risk of this product issue is a potential extension of surgery <30 minutes if a replacement is readily available.

The firm has become aware of a potential issue that may affect the mixing motor drive harness and mixing home detection sensor relay harness on your AIA-900 Analyzer. It is possible that the harnesses could rub against the Plarail chain during operation and result in premature wear. If observed, this issue will cause the following system error to be reported D.lane Mix home overrun error [4093] . If observed, this issue will cause the AIA-900 Analyzer not to function and the D.lane Mix home overrun error [4093] will be reported by the system. Replacement of the motor drive harness and mixing home detection sensor relay harness will mitigate the potential for premature wear and effectively prevent this issue from causing the system error. If the sensor relay harness fails, the AIA-900 analyzer will cease to function and will be unavailable for use. If this issue occurs, there may be a delay in testing and reporting patient test results. Tosoh is aware of two complaints associated with the unexpected wearing of the harness. There have been no user or patient injuries reported that are related to this device malfunction.
