FDA (Devices) recall action 86440
The FDA (Devices) publishes a recall like this one as 2 separate product records. They share a firm, a date and a cause; this page is all of them in one place, so the scale of the action is visible rather than spread across 2 pages.
There is an intermittent software issue that could affect the systems, in which an exam video for one patient (Patient A) might be copied to another patient (Patient B). This does not occur at the time the user performs and initially reviews an exam; it is not evident until a follow-up review occurs.
The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.
