Medical device recalls

Medtronic was made aware of a supplier calibration issue during the contract sterilization process that may lead to unsterile product. Use of affected product may lead to an unspecified infection or, in the case of sutures used in the eye, pose a loss of vision risk.

Certain lots of the Restoris MultiCompartmental Knee (MCK) Tibial Baseplate Trials contain product with incorrect size laser marking

Patella drills are marked with incorrect diameter size of 5.6mm, when they should be 5.4mm. Porous patella overdrills are marked with incorrect diameter size of 5.4 mm, when they should be 5.6 mm. If the incorrect drill is selected during surgery, there is risk of the implant loosening, implant not properly fitting, and/or fractured bone.

If the PM for the telescopic carriage is not performed annually as defined in the Instructions for Use (IFU), the tension force of the spring balancer inside of the telescopic carriage will unavoidably decay through normal wear and tear; as a result there is a potential that the Ceiling Suspension of the DigitalDiagnost C50 system may descend inadvertently if power to the system is interrupted, and may result in injuries to patients and users

Not programmed in accordance with specification. The programming affects the RFID function and does not allow the NanoKnife probes to be recognized by the NanoKnife generator resulting in a delay in procedure

There is a potential that the distal end of the catheter may be bent beyond its intended curvature and when connected to patient monitoring device, the monitor may display an error message.

Bio-Rad received four customer complaints from 11/30/2022 to 12/21/2022 on BioPlex 2200 Anti-CCP Kit (Lot 301481) stating that results were discrepant while performing lot-to-lot validation against previous lots. Internal testing at Bio-Rad has demonstrated that Lot No. 301481 exhibits a specificity of 94.5% (95% CI 91.8  96.4) whereas the IFU indicates a specificity of 97.8% (95% CI 96.1  98.8%). The reduction in specificity may lead to an increase in the number of false positivesBio-Rad received four customer complaints from 11/30/2022 to 12/21/2022 on BioPlex 2200 Anti-CCP Kit (Lot 301481) stating that results were discrepant while performing lot-to-lot validation against previous lots.

They are included in the recall only because the calibrators are lot matched to the impacted reagent pack.

Gauge malfunction: Digital gauge displays an incorrect tank pressure - displays pressure higher than actual tank pressure. This may lead to tank running out of oxygen during use without audible alarms, potentially leading to an out of oxygen event and no flow.

A decrease in wall thickness has the potential for a premature pump failure, compared to a pump with standard wall thickness, based on the number of interactions with the pump to inflate and deflate the penile prosthesis.
