Hematology analyzers configured with HGB photometers may result in erroneously high hemoglobin (HGB) results on samples with elevated white blood cell (WBC) counts.
Foley catheter trays have incorrect inserts, user may think:1)Silicone, when it's natural rubber latex, or 2)Natural rubber latex with infection control coating, when it's silicone hydrogel with antimicrobial coating, or 3)Natural latex with infection control, when it's silicone hydrogel coated without antimicrobial coating, which may cause infection and/or local and/or systemic allergic reaction

Wire break(s) have occurred in rechargeable deep brain stimulation implantable pulse generators, implanted in the submuscular pectoral location. Wire breaks prevent successful stimulation, thus requiring device removal/replacement and users may experience high monopolar impedances, undesired sensation, loss of therapy, return of symptoms and/or Bluetooth connectivity challenges.

Lack of a 510(k) premarket clearance for the i-STAT CG8+, EG7+ and EG6+ cartridges to reflect updated sample type for potassium and ionized calcium and measurement ranges for pH and PO2.
VITROS Chemistry Products LAC Slides on VITROS XT 3400 and VITROS XT 7600 Systems are experiencing an increased occurrence of calibration failure related to lots from coating 0130 and above with Condition Code TH4-63J during calibration, causing the delay of lac test results and potentially impact patient management. The issue was identified by QuidelOrtho through an increase in customer complaints compared to the historical baseline with average failure rate of 1% for coating 0130 in 2025 while average of failure rate for other coating was 0.06% in 2025 and average of failure rate for all coatings is 0.03% for 2024.
