What this means for you
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (medical software) where injury or misdiagnosis has not yet been reported, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for theoretical hazards without confirmed adverse events.
Plain-English summary
Change Healthcare Canada Company is recalling 35 systems of McKesson Cardiology Hemo software, including versions 13.0, 13.1.1, 13.1.2, 13.2, 13.2.1, and 14.0. The recall is due to a potential issue where incorrect data entry can lead to inaccurate hemodynamic calculations.
The issue occurs when the unit of measurement (UOM) for hemoglobin is configured in a way that differs from the user's understanding. This discrepancy can potentially result in misdiagnosis and inappropriate treatment for patients.
The affected software was distributed worldwide, including in the United States, Australia, Canada, Germany, Ireland, Israel, and the United Kingdom. Users of the affected software versions should contact Change Healthcare for further instructions on how to resolve the configuration issue.
