Burrs (molding flash) on the cutter may tear the harvested vien

Recent reports of patient infection.

Smiths Medical identified a labeling error in which the barcode (UDI) was not correctly reflecting the expiration date of the product

Epoxy used during manufacturing of the LifeSPARC Pump may have uncured epoxy. if undetectable curing may result in added risk of early pump failure,

An issue was found in Software RayCare 5A, 5B, 6A, including service packs, where an allergy warning against medication substance (drug ingredient) will not be displayed as expected under certain circumstances

Potential for current software to miscount when scanning in multiple sponge-products from the same unique sponge-pack type

Users were identifying autofill failure conditions on the devices causing pump stops.

Users were identifying autofill failure conditions on the devices causing pump stops.

Users were reporting instances of "Gas Loss in IAB Circuit" and "Gas Gain in IAB Circuit" alarms while providing therapy. An internal investigation of the complaints determined that there is a potential trigger for these alarms that was not listed in the IFU: Patient Movement (coughing, general movement, and swallowing). Blood in the circuit, kinks/abrasions of the tubing/catheter and certain patient conditions could also trigger these alarms. The firm's HHE also identified hardware issues related to these alarms.
