There is a potential that IV administration sets contain a 15 drops/mL drop cannula instead of a 10 drops/mL drop cannula within the drip chamber. An infusion set with an incorrect drop cannula could result in inaccurate delivery of the intended infusion volume (under-delivery). This could result in under-delivery of critical medication which may lead to serious adverse health consequences.
The FlexLab Centrifuge Module loading algorithm may lead to unbalanced loads which could damage the centrifuge.

Delfi Medical Innovations
Delfi Medical Innovations Inc has discovered that tourniquets cuffs in certain lots of the VariFit Sterile Single Use Thigh Cuffs, Single Port, Single Bladder models may have been manufactured with an inadequate perimeter weld on the cuff. Once applied to a patients thigh and inflated to a pressure to occlude blood flow in the thigh distal to the cuff, after a period of time the cuff may leak to the extent that the tourniquet instrument supplying air pressure to the cuff may not be able to adequately control and regulate pressure in the cuff. This may result in some blood flow in the thigh distal to the cuff.
It was determined that in rare cases persons can receive low dose of unintended radiation. The system performed exposures without the exposure button being pressed. Exposure will be released for less than 500ms, therefore, the overall dose is estimated at 0.01mSv or less than 500 mGy in total.

Ortho Development
The locking mechanism of the tibial tray exhibited a manufacturing defect in which a uniform ridge was cut along the inner wall of the "T" and "Y" junctions, which may cause resistance when the Tibial Insert was being assembled.
