TransMedics OCS perfusion sets recalled for possible startup failure

TransMedics is recalling three OCS organ perfusion sets used for organ transport: the OCS Heart Perfusion Set (Model 1200, software rev 3), the OCS Liver Perfusion Set (Model 3200, software rev 3), and the OCS Lung Mission Critical Plus Perfusion Set (Model 2200, software rev 1). The perfusion module in these sets may have an unprogrammed Front End Board, which can stop the system from getting past startup and cause it to show the error "Unsupported Perfusion Module Present." The notice says the product was distributed worldwide, including nationwide in the US in several states and in Serbia, and reports no injuries.

The agency lists each product separately. Check every one you might have.
