Software issue may cause a glucose result to be associated to the wrong patient

Subrecall of a kitted device from SafeGuard Medical due to internal testing identified an issue affecting the device's sterile pad, potentially causing the sterile pad to degrade over time. The degradation may cause remnants of the nonwoven pad material to dislodge on the wound or in close proximity to the wound.

Ultrasound system may: 1) Not recognize previous transducer registration, prevent scanning, require re-registration with Wi-Fi/cellular access, which may be unavailable outside of the hospital (ambulances/aircraft/field); 2) At connection between transducer USB cable to tablet/phone, there may be an unstable connection/may disconnect disrupting function. May cause diagnosis/treatment delay.

A software issue may result in unintended mismatch of patient information on manually printed images. Incorrect patient information appearing on printed images could create a documentation discrepancy or incorrect association of clinical images with a patient record.

The radiopaque material may detach from the marker. In some cases, artifact was noted and attributed to the detached material.

The affected products bear an incorrect statement on the carton packaging indicating that the product is "Indicated for Extended Wear". However, this product is intended for daily wear, and the extended-wear statement should not have appeared on the affected carton labeling. This product is not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for extended wear use.

Rotors have been found with a non-conforming microstructure, which may result in some rotors breaking into two or more pieces during use. Rotors that break into multiple pieces during use may result in significant damage to materials (i.e., samples) being processed in the centrifuge and to the centrifuge instrument.

Optima XE XPN ultracentrifuge rotors may contain a microstructure defect that can cause rotors to break into two or more pieces (bifurcate) during a centrifugation run, resulting in destruction of samples being processed. When used for in vitro diagnostic (IVD) sample preparation, rotor breakage may delay patient test results. Additionally, sample destruction may expose laboratory personnel to biohazardous materials.

If the vented cap becomes blocked, gas may accumulate and the bottle may swell due to increased internal pressure. In some cases, excess vapor or liquid chemistry may escape from the bottle when the cap is twisted during opening, which could result in user exposure if required personal protective equipment (PPE) is not properly used. Such exposure may result in injury to the user or others in close proximity.
