Medical device recalls

There was an error in inspection and programming of the eTRAX needle sensor for Aurora trackers. The result is a potential for the needle tip position to be incorrectly identified on the user interface.

Kits contain recalled Olympus biopsy valves. Olympus is investigating an increase in complaints associated with rubber fragment detachment in the slit of single use biopsy valves. Potential consequences associated with detachment of fragments from valve include foreign body in patient's tracheobronchial tree, which may require intervention for removal. Other potential consequences include inflammatory response, hypoxia, and prolongation of procedure.

Following a complaint investigation, Olympus identified a potential defect in the 24V power supply module in some SOLTIVE laser units which may cause the system to become inoperable. Additionally, smoke or a burning smell may occur. By design, the issue causing the smoke or burning smell would be contained within the internal laser console enclosure and would be self-extinguishing.

There is a potential breach in the sterile pouch packaging for one lot of radiology kits, which may compromise product sterility.

Potential that mis-ordered frames in Vue Motion during dynamic cine runs may cause images frames to display out of sequence.

Connectors were not manufactured to required dimensional specifications and may not form a proper seal with ENFit-style devices, which could lead to leakage. Leakage may result in delayed care and fluid loss. Additional consequences may also occur if user over-tightens the connector to stop the leakage, including additional clinical intervention, risk of infection, patient discomfort, and prolonged recovery process.
