- 2020-06-03FDA-DeviceSpectranetics CorporationClass IIBridge Occlusion Balloon, REF 590-001, QTY 1, Sheath Compatibility 12F, Guidewire Compatibility 0.035 in, Working Length 90 cm, Balloon Outer Diameter 31 mm, Balloon Length 80 mmm, Rx ONLY, CE Marking, Sterile EO, UDI: 00813132024666
There is a potential for thrombus formation on balloons prepped and staged in the vasculature for long durations. All users, such as those performing lead extraction cases may not be aware of this risk. It was determined that current labeling is insufficient to ensure all potential users minimize the time the balloon remains in vasculature. If left in too long it could lead to embolization.
- 2020-06-03FDA-DeviceInpeco S.A.Class IIAptio Automation System with Advia2120LAS Interface Module (P/N FLX-219-00, FLX-219-10), ImmunoCAP 1000 Interface Module (P/N FLX-226-01, FLX-226-10), or StaRRsed Interface Module (P/N FLX-268-00) - Product Usage: is a modular system designed to automate Pre-Analytical and Post-Analytical processing, sample handling in order to automate sample processing in the Laboratory. The systems consolidate multiple Analytical instruments into a unified workstation.
The identified problem is an erroneous association between the carrier and the sample tube caused by a communication error between the firmware of the Interface Modules and the Automation software. This problem can occur only when one of these Interface Modules is put off-line after a carrier in their secondary lane is physically returned on the main track and then put back on-line when the carrier is used to transport another tube.

- 2020-06-03FDA-DeviceRadiometer Medical ApSClass IIABL90 FLEX, model no. 393-090; and Spare Part Hemolyzer Units (902-980): R0526 - R0941 - Product Usage: are intended for use by trained technologists, nurses, physicians and therapists. It is intended for use in a laboratory environment, near patient or point-of-care setting.
The analyzers fail on S7950 (Range +) QC measurements due to the hemolyzer cuvettes, a subcomponent of the optical system which measures ctHb and derivates. In a cuvette with light shunt, some of the received light has not been transmitted through the sample. This will lead to a perturbed and non-linear absorbance spectrum which results in measurement errors.
