Why these products were recalled

There is the potential that after installation of the IAS tool, some studies can remain hidden without user notification. Access to those hidden studies requires GE Healthcare assistance, which can result in a delay in reading the study.

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
