Stems may have an undersized spigot bore diameter therefore separating the proximal body from the stem may not be possible without surgical delay and/or bone damage

Malfunction of the automatic laser beam shut-off, the OCT unit might not recognize whether the laser beam is safely switched off

Proton Therapy System (PTS) software can be started in the clinical environment (clinical user) while some processes are still running in the test environment (tcs user). Initiating the startup of the clinical processes in the environment is not prevented even if some processes of the test environment (tcs) are still running. It may lead to situations where the system is using test processes without notifying the clinical user. If the versions of the processes are different between both environments, this could have an impact on patient treatments.

Software version VB20_SP5 my lead to a relevant degradation of head image quality, a potential risk to patients is misdiagnosis.

Abnormal images such as horizontal stripes may be displayed and recovery may not not be possible by restarting the system. The worst case scenario is an operator who is working without a workable image may remove a catheter from the patient's blood vessel and damage the blood vessel.

When a measurement with a PTW detector array is performed with the software BeamAdjust 2.2 or VeriSoft 8.0, a measurement error can occur under specific conditions. This error can lead to a too-low or too-high measured absolute dose which affects patient plan verification results

Customers reported that the device jaws were difficult to open or would not open following application on tissue. Use of a device with this potential assembly issue could result in the potential for bleeding, unintended tissue injury or loss, and delay in treatment while an alternate device is obtained.

Due to dose discrepancy when delivering a plan to a patient in a Non-HFS (Head First Supine) orientation specifically in Feet First Supine (FFS).

A potential chemical degradation of Sevoflurane by Lewis acids (metal oxides and metal halides) has been discovered that may result in inhalation and/or skin exposure of hydrogen fluoride.

The Instructions for Use provided with the device contained information intended for use of a mechanical wheelchair, not a chair with casters.
