Plain-English summary
The FDA has recalled the SOZO Bilateral Arm L-Dex Software (versions 4.1 and 5.0), manufactured by Impedimed Limited. The recall affects 354 units distributed nationwide across 43 states and Washington, DC.
The bilateral L-Dex assessment software has reduced sensitivity compared to the unilateral arm L-Dex assessment for detecting early lymphedema. This lower sensitivity could result in under-recognition of early lymphedema, which could lead to delayed early intervention and require more aggressive treatment later.
Healthcare facilities and providers using this software should contact Impedimed Limited for guidance regarding available remediation measures or software updates. For additional information about this recall, refer to the FDA's official recall notice.
