Plain-English summary
Topcon Medical Systems, Inc. is recalling 450 units of the IMAGEnet 6 Ophthalmic Data System, System Version 1.53. The software is intended for the collection, storage, and management of digital images, patient data, diagnostic data, and clinical information from Topcon devices. The recall is nationwide.
The recall was initiated because of a software defect where patient identification information may be displayed incorrectly. Specifically, if a user selects a patient and then selects a different patient before the first patient's thumbnails have finished loading, the first patient's thumbnails may appear on the screen with the second patient's name and ID. This could lead to confusion regarding which patient's data is being viewed.
Healthcare providers using this software should stop using the affected version and contact Topcon Medical Systems for instructions on how to resolve the issue. No injuries or illnesses have been reported in connection with this recall.
