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 software display error that could lead to incorrect medical documentation, fitting the criteria for moderate severity without reported injuries.

Plain-English summary

AGFA Corp. is recalling the IMPAX CV Reporting software, specifically the Non-Invasive (NIV) module, due to a display error in the report generation process. The affected software versions are RM 2.03 through 2.08 and NIV 1.0. The recall covers six units distributed nationwide, including in Indiana, South Carolina, Ohio, and Texas.

The defect occurs when users select "Left stenosis" in the "Graft Duplex Conclusion" section of the IMPAX CV Reporting Non-Invasive module. In this instance, the text "Right stenosis" incorrectly appears in the sentence display within the printed representation of the report. This error could lead to inaccurate documentation of patient findings.

Healthcare facilities using this software should verify their version numbers and contact AGFA Corp. for instructions on how to resolve the issue. The recall is classified as Class II by the FDA, indicating a reasonable probability that the use of the product could cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences.
