Medical device recalls

Tracheostomy tube with cuff reusable inner cannula has a flange that may disconnect from the outer cannula of the device, which could cause respiratory failure, aspiration, unspecified tissue injury, aspiration, respiratory tract infection, bronchospasm, a delay to treatment and/or death.

The incorrect computed patient age is showing in VX for patients less than 3 months old.

During an internal investigation, ACS was unable to confirm that the CODMAN component achieved the required Sterility Assurance Level and therefore is not suitable for sterilization according to ACS procedures.

Airway adapter does not meet specification and may break off when attaching a valve or tube. Device failure may result in inaccurate readings, a break in airway circuit, and loss of ventilation. A break in the airway circuit could result in inability to ventilate, hypoxia, cardiopulmonary collapse, or death.

Five complaints received where surgeon was unable to remove and/or connect the inserter with the stem during surgery due to excess material remaining within the taper. Issue may lead to clinically significant extension of surgery to find a replacement.

When following a specific less typical workflow in which the user remeasures using the ultrasound device or manually edits primitive or derived measurement values directly in Clinical Reporting, derived measurements may be inconsistent with the associated primitive measurements in the final patient report.

Increased risk for valve housing detachment causing leakage.

Power supply unit for Zebra Printers used with the device can potentially overheat or cause a fire hazard.

Medical convenience kits contain plastic syringes affected by the FDA Safety Alert issued on March 19, 2024. Leaks, breakage, and/other quality issues have been identified that may pose a risk to patient health.

Under certain circumstances, it can occur that patient records from unrelated individuals are automatically merged into one patient record without user notification.

Product is mislabeled with the incorrect fill volume.

Candida Immunodiffusion Antigen may have reduced sensitivity which could result in false negative results.

the DxI 9000 encoder wheel was misaligned on the motor shaft, leading to increased slippage errors and causing the instrument to stop, posing a high safety risk due to potential delays in patient results.

Beckman Coulter identified that an issue for DxI 9000 tip stocker interface (TSI) and reagent storage interface (RSI) boards with the firmware version 1.1.0.0 can cause sub-system communication failures. This failure could result in a delay in reporting patient results.

Beckman Coulter identified that an issue for Access 2 Sample Motors (B48016) due to improper alignment, causing the motors to rub against the sample wheelbase plate and index sensor. The issue was traced to a worn tool used in production (at the supplier), affecting Access 2 sample motors. This could lead to a potential delay in reporting patient test results.

Neonatal-Infant and Adult-Pediatric CO2 Sampling Line/Airway Adapter/CO2 Oral-Nasal Filter Line/Intubated Filter (CO2) Line device users may experience difficulty/inability to disconnect adapter from endotracheal tube for procedures (e.g. suctioning), may cause treatment delay and/or unintended extubation, which could lead to respiratory failure, hypoxia, aspiration, and/or low oxygen saturation.
