Hazard: During an internal review, Medline identified higher-than-expected endotoxin levels on a representative Medline neuro sponge product, indicating that in-market product may be out-of-specification for endotoxin.

Hazard: Locking mechanisms may not properly secure to the Arc system, resulting in shifting of coordinates during procedures.

Hazard: Use of the affected product can result in discrepant low pH and measured Total Carbon Dioxide (mTCO2) results and corresponding calculated values in arterial, venous, and capillary patient samples. An erroneously low pH or mTCO2 reading can lead to inappropriate treatment of nonexistent acidosis (respiratory of metabolic) or missed diagnosis of alkalosis (a true high pH: respiratory or metabolic alkalosis), potentially causing harm through unnecessary interventions with the former or failure to deliver appropriate treatment with the latter.

Hazard: Approximately 7.6% of cartridges from specific i-STAT EG7+ (list number 03P76-25), i-STAT EG6+ (list number 03P77-25) and i-STAT G3+ (list number 03P78-26) cartridge lots in the U.S. marketplace may report higher than expected PCO2 and lower than expected pH results due to a manufacturing issue. A falsely high pCO2 together with a falsely low pH makes the blood gas appear as if the patient is in severe respiratory acidosis. If the clinician believes the values are real, it may trigger unnecessary or even harmful interventions such as unnecessary ventilator changes, unnecessary medications, potential harm from overcorrection, or delays in identifying true problems.

Hazard: Based on long-term stability testing, it was determined that in units older than 1.5 years (17 months) the mixing rod may, in rare cases, come loose from its lock during the mixing process. Notification is to reduce the shelf life from 3 years to 1.5 years (17 months).

Hazard: insulin pump software versions 1.4.2, and 1.4.3 issue with Dexcom Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) G7 sensor may result in delayed CGM reading then switch to non-CGM dosing, leading to only basal/requested meal doses provided, no correction doses/insulin reductions/suspensions for high/low glucose unless blood glucose entered for sensor life or replacement. Potential health risks to users include severe hyperglycemia with and without DKA and severe hypoglycemia.
