- 2018-10-17FDA-DeviceBecton Dickinson & Co.Class IIIBD FocalPoint Slide Profiler and BD FocalPoint GS Review Station; Catalog Nos. 490398, 490653, 491085, 491086, 491090, 490189 The BD FocalPoint GS Imaging System is intended to assist in cervical cancer screening of BD SurePath Liquid-based Pap Test slides to detect evidence of squamous carcinoma, adenocarcinoma and their usual precursor conditions.
The device may not function at the lower end (<15 deg. C) of the labeled operating temperatures. The instrument returns to normal operating conditions when environmental temperatures are at or above 15 deg. C. This issue has no potential to cause harm to either the patient or the operator. At the lower temperature, the instrument may fail to initialize, in which case slides would require manual screening. Therefore, no slides are screened by the device and no results can be released in error. The instrument labeling has been revised to indicate an operating temperature lower limit of 18 deg. C and operating humidity of 20 to 80% relative humidity.
