Plain-English summary
Boston Scientific Corporation is recalling three Auriga XL 4007 General Demo Systems. The recall is due to a potential issue in the mechanical cooling system that may cause the consoles to exhibit faster than normal power degradation. This issue could lead to a low power error (1301) being displayed on the screen.
The affected consoles are designed to stop emitting laser pulses and enter a stand-by mode after a low power error message is displayed. The recall covers three units with serial numbers 21302939, 21302937, and 21302938. These units were distributed worldwide to various countries including Australia, Belgium, Brazil, and the United States.
The FDA has classified this recall as Class II, meaning the use of, or exposure to, the violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote. Users should contact Boston Scientific for further instructions on how to proceed with the recall.
