Terminated Class II Medical devices
- Recall started
- 14 January 2019
- Terminated
- 7 June 2024
- Reason
- Normal operation of the device is to power up the device in the morning, register the first patient, and then perform a fluoroscopy. If, however, the user powers up the device in the morning and makes an error by starting a fluoroscopy while the first patient is still being registered, the device application will abnormally terminate and require service intervention before it can be used again. This event will not occur after the first patient procedure.

Terminated Class II Medical devices
- Recall started
- 14 January 2019
- Terminated
- 30 April 2021
- Reason
- Two issues: Event 1: Normal operation of the device is to power up the device in the morning, register the first patient, and then perform a fluoroscopy. If, however, the user powers up the device in the morning and makes an error by starting a fluoroscopy while the first patient is still being registered, the device application will abnormally terminate and require service intervention before it can be used again. This event will not occur after the first patient procedure. Event 2: In rare cases a synchronization error may occur in the data transmission circuit in the device due to external noise. The visibility of the displayed image may be corrupted (images become bit-shifted abnormal images). If this event occurs, it may become difficult to see the object, which may hinder the examination and treatment.

- Reason
- In these units, the brake is usually released by gripping the drive handle and applied by letting go of the handle. However, for systems within a specified manufacture period, we have identified that even when letting go of the handle, the systems brakes are not applied. In this event, if the Operator releases the handle when the device is moving, the unit will continue to coast.
