GE Healthcare Core Services Hub V8 recalled for patient data misassociation risk
What this means
GE Healthcare's Core Services Hub V8 software, used by hospitals to manage medical imaging workflows, can sometimes link historical imaging data to the wrong patient record during system migrations. If this occurs, a doctor might view images belonging to a different patient, potentially leading to wrong diagnoses or delayed care.
- If your healthcare facility uses Core Services Hub V8, contact GE Healthcare support to confirm whether your system is affected and for guidance on remediation steps.
- Be alert to any imaging data that appears mismatched to a patient's medical record, and report it to your IT and clinical teams immediately.
- Work with GE Healthcare on any software updates or corrective actions they provide.
The agency's original wording
Under certain conditions historical imaging data migrated from a legacy system may become incorrectly associated with a different patient. If this occurs, studies or images may be displayed under the wrong patient record, which could lead to misdiagnosis or a delay in patient care.
