Fujifilm Synapse Cardiovascular Software Recall for Patient Demographic Mismatch
Fujifilm Medical Systems is recalling Synapse Cardiovascular software versions v4.0.8 and v4.0.8 SR1 because patient demographics in exported reports may not match the clinical reports.
What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, and the hazard involves a data integrity issue (demographic mismatch) rather than a direct physical injury or high-risk pathogen, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity recall.
