Beckman Coulter DxI 9000 immunoassay analyzer recalled for software-related motion errors

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: This is an FDA Class II medical device recall where a software error causes operational failures (intermittent hard stops and delays) in a diagnostic analyzer. No injuries or illnesses have been reported, but the device's operational unreliability poses a risk to clinical workflow and patient testing. Per the rubric, this qualifies as a risk-of-harm product without reported injury, warranting High severity.
