Medical device recalls

A manufacturing error may cause the radiopaque marker bands to be too loose on certain CXC3.0 CrossCath Support Catheters (compatible with 0.014 wire guides) and too tight on certain CXC3.4 CrossCath Support Catheters (compatible with 0.018 wire guides).

The product may be counterfeit and could have microbial issues.

Device may fail to turn on or unexpectedly attempt to restart, rendering it unable to return to a ready for use state. Additionally, this issue may occur when the device is in standby mode, when attempting to power on to run a self-test. If this occurs, the device will indicate that it is not ready for use.

Device was shipped without a Unique Device Identification (UDI) label and a separate label identifies the power pack as CE Marked when the device has not yet received the CE Mark.

Potential suture clip breaking during a humerus fixation surgery.

Residual polishing compounds, that are used in the needle sleeve manufacturing process, may be present on the injector needle. The residual polishing compounds could transfer to the patient's eye during procedure possibly resulting in irritation, inflammation, local allergic reaction/ hypersensitivity, iritis, uveitis/sterile endophthalmitis or an intraocular foreign body.

The CO/CO2 sensor cable harness may have lower electromagnetic shielding, which might have resulted in a non-compliance with the IEC 60601-1-2 standard. As a consequence of a lower electromagnetic shielding provided by the cable harness, the CO/CO2 sensor could have been influenced by high frequencies emitted by very close devices.

There is a potential for the presence of a foreign particle inside the pump motor assembly which could interfere with the motor gear rotation and lead to a permanent motor stall.

Potential that 3Fr size catheter placed in the catheter tray instead of 4Fr for the 4Fr x 20cm Single Lumen CT Midline Basic Tray.

GN Hearing received reports from our manufacturing site in US regarding a software bug in our service & repair tool which affected the capture and restoration of user data in a limited number of repaired hearing aids. The software bug caused these repaired hearing aids to contain altered specifications for sound amplification, potentially putting users residual hearing at risk of experiencing unintended additional available gain to varying degrees i.a.18dB flat linear gain or potentially in worst case Full On Gain. However, no injuries have been reported.
