Medical device recalls

Philips has identified three software issues: 1. During a continuous CT (CCT) scan, there is the potential that the Gantry could remain at the current scan position after pressing Go. 2. Potential where the message of Previous Surview Exists Select Previous Surview? <Yes> or <No> should display but does not appear. 3. After performing Surview and planning the Brain Helical acquisition by setting Brain Area DoseRight Index to increase the dose, there is the potential that the Define Head Area option in the context menu is grayed out.

On lot of Sterile Circumcision Kits was distributed without the required sterilization process and is therefore not sterile.

The potential for repeated frames during HF-OCT pullback when using the Gentuity HF-OCT Console (software version 21.11 to 23.3.13) with the Vis-Rx and Vis-Rx Prime catheters. This correction is intended to ensure that users are fully informed of how to recognize, avoid, and mitigate this condition to maintain accurate longitudinal (length) measurements during OCT imaging.

Increased difficulty in installing the centrifuge bowl onto the centrifuge bowl holder. Improper installation may cause the centrifuge bowl to dislodge, resulting in a broken bowl during the prime cycle or treatment phase, leading to a delay in patient treatment and blood loss.

Due to a quality issue regarding the presence of burr on the finished cervical plate product.

Increased rate of out-of-specification endotoxin results.

Devices which did not meet internal quality specifications were inadvertently distributed.

During 3D acquisitions, lighter and darker patient images may be captured, which may result in less accurate 3D reconstruction. The variation of brightness is a result of a constant unregulated medium dose and the angular change of patient diameter caused by rotational acquisition. This may result in unintentional low-dose radiation exposure to a patient.

Due to increased in complaints their is the potential for endoscopic clipping device to malfunction.

An internal component of the actuators in a certain production batch may not meet the required mechanical strength. This could result, in the worst case scenario, in a sudden loss of the actuator's ability to hold the load, leading to rapid and uncontrolled downward movement of the lifting arm.

The CORE Workstation may display an incorrect "Planning Date " when viewing cases on the "Start Case" menu screen.

it was found that in versions 1.3.7, 1.4.2, and 1.4.3, the Lock Screen and Limited Access Passcode Screen on the iLet graphical user interface (GUI) include certain icons displayed in the status bar that are active, thereby allowing the user to bypass those screens when those icons on the status bar are pressed, allowing unauthorized access while the device is in Limited Access Mode. A Health Risk associated with Limited access mode includes severe hypoglycemia due to unauthorized access to the iLet if someone were to make unauthorized meal announcements or stopped insulin delivery.

Products may report incorrect AST results during quality control. Health consequences may include delayed response or the need to change to another antifungal agent if laboratory ignores Quality Control test result.

Potential safety issue involving the Mean Aneurysm Flow Amplitude (MAFA) ratio of AneurysmFlow (Interventional Tool). Philips has determined that the MAFA ratio does not provide reliable prognostic information regarding aneurysm occlusion following Flow Diverter Stent treatment, however despite being stated in the IUF, it is being relied on for making clinical decisions.

Potential for the accumulation of small air bubbles in the arterial line due to adherence of blood gases to the tubing under negative pressure.

Due to a manufacturing defect, certain Omnipod 5 Pods from 49 lots have an internal soft cannula tear that results in insulin leaking into the Pod instead of being delivered to the user regardless of basal or bolus delivery. This defect results from damage to the unexposed portion of the soft cannula during manufacturing, which would result in a compromised fluid path. The primary failure mode is pump under-delivery due to loss of insulin to an internal leak; in some cases, the defect may also lead to pump shutoff and cessation of insulin delivery when leaked insulin contacts Pod circuity in a manner that results in an electrical short. Under-delivery of insulin (both basal and bolus insulin) or cessation of insulin put users at risk of hyperglycemia, and complications from acute and chronic hyperglycemia, including dehydration, blurry vision, nausea, vomiting, altered mental status, diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), hyperglycemic hyperosmolar syndrome (HHS), or even death. Users may require hospitalization or medical intervention to treat severe adverse health consequences. Not all devices with the defect will issue an alarm or alert the user. If there is sufficient leakage of insulin to cause a short in the circuity, the Pod will issue a Hazard Alarm that stops all insulin delivery and alerts the user to replace their Pod. In addition, if a user s glucose is trending high and is not responding to insulin delivery, the system may reach the maximum amount of insulin microboluses allowed by the system and trigger the Automated Delivery Restriction (ADR) alert that tells users to check their blood glucose and take appropriate actions (i.e., ADR is a response to persistent hyperglycemia and maximum automated delivery constraints rather than a direct detection of the leak). The magnitude of under-delivery is unknown and based on multiple factors, including how much insulin is being delivered, whether an alarm and/or alert triggers, whether and when the user recognizes the device defect, the duration of Pod use, and the size of the tear.

On April 02, 2026, Aligned Medical Solutions, Billings, MT, initiated a nationwide recall of two convenience kits that contain the Medline Namic Angiographic Rotating Adapter(RA) 10CC Syringe. Associated kits are AMS6908E Angio Pack and AMS6908F Angio Pack.

Due to potential for tourniquet cuffs to detach from the bladder at the welding connection and result in the cuff not being able to maintain pressure.

Customers have observed quality control values out of range at the lowest quality control level (QC Level 1) for the PIGF assay which require troubleshooting steps to resolve. If Quality Controls are not performed according to the Instructions for Use, the underestimation of QC1 may go undetected and could contribute to falsely elevated sFlt-1/PlGF ratio results. A falsely elevated sFlt-1/PlGF ratio may result in a higher-risk classification for progression to preeclampsia with severe features potentially leading to intensified clinical monitoring.

Due to manufacturing issue (incorrectly processing) with in vitro multidrug resistant test.

Multi-parameter command module has a circuit board issue and when in Auto mode, Cardiac Output (CO) measurement may activate early, resulting in Bad Curve error with no CO measurement or Irregular Curve error with CO measurement not automatically excluded, which may result in inaccurate readings, or the need of additional readings, which may lead to delayed care and/or fluid overload.
