The Alinity s System is a highthroughput, fully automated immunoassay analyzer designed to determine the presence of specific antigens and antibodies by using chemiluminescent immunoassay technology.
Software error associated with the immunoassay analyzer wash cycle which is using 1 mL of wash buffer instead of the intended 3 mL of wash buffer to wash the exterior of the probe.
- 2022-03-23FDA-DeviceSiemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc.Class IIDiagnostic Ultrasound System, ACUSON Juniper, UDI: (01)04056869152059, Model: 11335791, Rx, CE Ultrasound imaging system intended for the following applications: Vascular, Abdominal, Neonatal, Echocardiographical, Pediatric, Small Parts, Musculoskeletal, Obstetrical, Gyneological, Intraoperative, and Urological applications using different ultrasound transducers for different applications.
The clip store function in the ultrasound imaging system does not work when the system has a disk full error. This could cause a delay in treatment if the ultrasound system is unable to save clips as study documentation during a high risk procedure, such as a stress echo exam.
- 2022-03-23FDA-DeviceSD Biosensor, Inc.Class ISTANDARD Q COVID-19 Ag Home Test STANDARD Q COVID-19 Ag Home Test is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid antigen present in human nasal sample.

- 2022-03-16FDA-DeviceIon Beam Applications S.A.Class IIProteusPLUS and ProteusONE- designed to produce and deliver a proton beam for the treatment of patients with localized tumors and other conditions susceptible to treatment by radiation Proteus 235
When resuming from a beam pause, the Proton Therapy System does not verify whether the beam range has not been manually modified during the pause and is still the prescribed one. Therefore, if an operator manually modified the range during a pause, there is a risk that a portion of the treatment beam after the resume is delivered with an error in range

- 2022-03-16FDA-DeviceCytocell Ltd.Class IIDel(5q) Deletion FISH Probe Kit: In-Vitro Diagnostic to detect deletions in chromosome location from patients with AML or MDS Catalog Number: USA-LPH024
individual components have been labelled with incorrect colours. The red and green colours are opposite to those specified in the product labelling. The EGR1 probe is labelled in green rather than red and the control probe labelled in red rather than green. The expected positive signal pattern in the case of 1x deleted 5q will be 1G2R instead of 1R2G, an incorrect result
- 2022-03-16FDA-DeviceNextremity SolutionsClass IINextra Cannulated Hammertoe Standard Instrument Kit-indicated for small bone reconstruction limited to inter-digital repair and fusion of the lesser toe SKU: CH-STD-KT
During insertion of the middle phalanx implant into bone, the driver may deform the implant locking mechanism and result in inadequate mating force between the middle and proximal phalanx implants, resulting in surgical delay, in-situ removal of the implant, use of alternative surgical approach, disassembly of the implants post-operatively, and revision
- 2022-03-16FDA-DeviceNextremity SolutionsClass IINextra CH Cannulated Hammertoe Mini Instrument Kit-indicated for small bone reconstruction limited to inter-digital repair and fusion of the lesser toes SKU: CH-MINI-KT
During insertion of the middle phalanx implant into bone, the driver may deform the implant locking mechanism and result in inadequate mating force between the middle and proximal phalanx implants, resulting in surgical delay, in-situ removal of the implant, use of alternative surgical approach, disassembly of the implants post-operatively, and revision
- 2022-03-16FDA-DeviceNeuMoDx Molecular IncClass IINeuMoDx Flu A-B/RSV/SARS-CoV-2 Vantage Test Strip, Ref # 300900 (marketed under EUA202947). Distributed in boxes of 6 assay strips in individual pouches. Box, pouch and strips all labeled with product name, ref #, lot #, and expiration date.
A risk for product contamination was identified for the affected product lot. If used, there is an increased potential for SARS-CoV-2 false positive results when using the product.
- 2022-03-16FDA-DeviceBolder Surgical, LLCClass IICoolSeal Generator, REF: CSL-200-50
A potential manufacturing/assembly defect could result in the generator not meeting IEC 60601 standards for medical electrical equipment, and it can potentially, under specific conditions, lead to the delivery of unintended energy to the patient.
- 2022-03-16FDA-DeviceOrtho-Clinical Diagnostics, Inc.Class IIVITROS Chemistry Products VersaTips, Catalog No. 6801715 A VersaTip sales unit is composed of 1000 tips per box.
The lot has a shape deformity which may lead to a 16% reduction in the volume of the sample or reagent dispensed. In cases where the error is not detected and the affected results are not suppressed, clinical impact may include reduced drug dosage, or false positive or false negative results for bloodborne infectious disease assays when sample results are close to the cut-off value.
- 2022-03-16FDA-DeviceBrainlab AGClass IIExacTrac Dynamic software model numbers: 20910-01, ETD Positioning and Moni. 1.0.0 INST; 20910-01A, ETD Positioning and Moni. 1.0.1 INST; 20910-01B, ETD Positioning and Moni. 1.0.2 INST; and 20910-01C ETD Positioning and Moni. 1.0.3 INST.
