WEEK ENDING OCTOBER 11
Covidien announced that it has notified customers of a Field
Safety Alert for certain Medi-Trace™ Cadence and Kendall™ Multi-function
Defibrillation Electrodes due to a connector compatibility issue with Philips
FR3 and FRx Defibrillators.
These electrodes will not connect with Philips FR3 or FRx AED units, and in the
case of the use of Covidien defibrillation electrodes with the Philips FR3 AED
units, could result in a delay of therapy. The FRx AED unit requires the pads to
be pre-connected, and will issue a continuous alarm chirp to alert the user that
the proper pads are not connected to the unit prior to use. The FR3, however,
does not require pre-connection and the user will not discover the compatibility
issue until the AED must be used. This may result in a delay in therapy.
Philips FR3 and FRx AED units should only be used with the Philips brand
electrodes specified in the equipment manual.
The Field Safety Alert requests that customers review the use of
Covidien defibrillation electrodes in their facility to assure that Covidien
electrodes are not placed for use with Philips model FR3 or FRx AEDs.
There are a total of 644,460 electrodes affected by this safety alert.
The following Covidien electrodes are affected:
In addition, similar private label electrodes produced by Covidien were also
distributed under the following brands, and have the same connector
compatibility issue:
The Field Safety Alert applies to all lot numbers distributed
globally.
For further information or to report a problem, please contact Covidien Quality
Assurance at 1-800-962-9888, option 8, then extension 2500 between the hours of
8 a.m. and 5 p.m. (eastern) or email Mansfield.productmonitoring@covidien.com

| Devices | Minstrel (with scale) Product Usage: is a mobile passive hoist. It is intended for lifting and transporting adult residents on horizontal floors in hospitals, nursing homes or other health care facilitates. The Minstrel device aids in the lifting, transfer and lowering to safe position, of a patient. This is accomplished by placing a sling under the patient, and attaching the sling to a spreader bar that is connected to a lifting arm jig via a connection to the spreader bar that allows a swiveling up-down movement. Using battery power, an actuator then powers the lifting arm upwards so that the patient in the sling is lifted from, typically, a bed or chair. | Model Numbers: HMA0002 and HMB002-US; Serial Numbers: MPLAT0409W1177 ; MPLAT0410W1213 ; MPLAT0410W1228 ; MPLAT0410W1229 ; MPLAT0410W1231 ; MPLAT0410W1232 ; MPLAT0412W1290 ; MPLAT0412W1296 ; MPLAT0412W1297 ; MPLAT0502W1403 ; MPLAT0502W1404 ; MPLAT0503W1485 ; MPLAT0503W1486 ; MPLAT0504W1518 ; MPLAT0504W1519 ; MPLAT0504W1520 ; MPLAT0504W1531 | Class II | ArjoHuntleigh received three reports where the bolt under the scale unscrewed from the scale. There is a remote risk concerning the bolt unscrewing from the scale. When the scale and bolt parts are not correctly serviced, or when they receive a sharp blow during or outside of use, it is possible the bolt holding the spreader bar to the scale could unscrew during subsequent use. As a result, the spreader bar can eventually fully unscrew and become detached from the scale and the lift arm, and drop to the floor. Consequently, the person suspended in the sling that is hooked up to the spreader bar could also drop, and/or the spreader bar could drop onto the person, causing serious injury. | ARJOHUNTLEIGH POLSKA Sp. z.o.o. |

In mixed growth, BC-UP does not specifically attribute van-mediated vancomycin resistance to either E. faecalis or E. faecium, or mecA-mediated methicillin resistance to either S. aureus or S. epidermidis. BC-UP is indicated for use in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings to, aid in the diagnosis of bacterial bloodstream infections; however, is not to be used to, monitor these infections. Sub-culturing of positive blood cultures is necessary to recover, organisms for susceptibility testing, identification of organisms not detected by BC-UP, differentiation of mixed growth, association of antimicrobial resistance marker genes to a specific organism, or for epidemiological typing. | Product Number: 20-009-018; Lot Numbers and Expiration Dates: 1) Lot: 090613018B, Expiration Date: 03/05/14; 2) Lot: 091413018B, Expiration Date: 03/13/14; 3) Lot: 091713018C, Expiration Date: 03/16/14; 4) Lot: 091813018B, Expiration Date: 03/17/14; 5) Lot: 092113018C, Expiration Date: 03/20/14; 6) Lot: 100213018B, Expiration Date: 03/31/14 | Class II | Nanosphere has received several reports relating to an increased rate of Processing Errors during procedures performed on the Processor SP caused by Tips in Tip Holder Assemblies for the following products and lots of Extraction Trays. | Nanosphere, Inc. |
| Devices | The Verigene Respiratory Virus Plus Nucleic Acid Test (RV+) on the Verigene System is a qualitative nucleic acid multiplex test intended to simultaneously detect and identify multiple respiratory virus nucleic acids in nasopharyngeal (NP) swab specimens from individuals with signs and symptoms of respiratory tract infection. The following virus types and subtypes are identified using the RV+: Influenza A, Influenza A subtype H1, Influenza A subtype H3, 2009 H1N1, Influenza B, Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) subtype A, and RSV subtype B. The test is not intended to detect Influenza C virus. Detecting and identifying specific viral nucleic acids from individuals exhibiting signs and symptoms of respiratory infection aids in the diagnosis of respiratory viral infection, if used in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings. Negative results for Influenza A, Influenza B, or RSV do not preclude influenza virus or RSV infection and should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis, treatment, or patient management decisions. Conversely, positive results do not rule-out bacterial infection or co-infection with other viruses. The agent detected may not be the definite cause of disease. The use of additional laboratory testing and clinical presentation must be considered in order to obtain the final diagnosis of respiratory viral infection. Performance characteristics for Influenza A Virus were established when Influenza A/H3, A/H1, and 2009 H1N1 were the predominant Influenza A viruses circulating. These characteristics may vary when other Influenza A viruses are emerging. If infection with a novel Influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions used specifically for novel virulent influenza viruses and sent to state or local health department for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted in these cases unless a BSL 3+ facility is available to receive and culture specimens. | Product Number: 20-009-020; Lot Number and Expiration Date: Lot: 091113020B, Expiration Date: 03/10/14 | Class II | Nanosphere has received several reports relating to an increased rate of Processing Errors during procedures performed on the Processor SP caused by Tips in Tip Holder Assemblies for the following products and lots of Extraction Trays. | Nanosphere, Inc. |
| Devices | The Verigene Enteric Pathogens Nucleic Acid Test (EP) is a multiplexed, qualitative test for simultaneous detection and identification of common pathogenic enteric bacteria and genetic virulence markers from liquid or soft stool preserved in Cary-Blair media, collected from individuals with signs and symptoms of gastrointestinal infection. The test is performed on the automated Nanosphere Verigene System utilizing reverse transcription (RT), polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and array hybridization to detect specific gastrointestinal microbial nucleic acid gene sequences associated with the following pathogenic bacteria: - Campylobacter Group (comprised of C. coli, C. jejuni, and C. lari), - Salmonella species, - Shigella species (including S. dysenteriae, S. boydii, S. sonnei, and S. flexneri), - Vibrio Group (comprised of V. cholerae and V. parahaemolyticus), - Yersinia enterocolitica. In addition, EP detects the Shiga toxin 1 gene and Shiga toxin 2 gene virulence markers. Shiga toxin producing E. coli (STEC) typically harbor one or both genes that encode for Shiga Toxins 1 and 2. EP is indicated as an aid in the diagnosis of specific agents of gastrointestinal illness, in conjunction with other clinical, laboratory, and epidemiological information; however, is not to be used to monitor these infections. EP also aids in the detection and identification of acute gastroenteritis in the context of outbreaks. Due to the limited number of positive specimens collected for certain organisms during the prospective clinical study, performance characteristics for Yersinia enterocolitica, Vibrio Group and Shigella species were primarily established with contrived specimens. Concomitant culture is necessary for organism recovery and further typing of bacterial agents. EP results should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis, treatment, or other patient management decisions. Confirmed positive results do not rule out co-infection with other organisms that are not detected by this test, and may not be the sole or definitive cause of patient illness. Negative EP results in the setting of clinical illness compatible with gastroenteritis may be due to infection by pathogens that are not detected by this test or non-infectious causes such as ulcerative colitis, irritable bowel syndrome, or Crohn's disease. | Product Number: (Not Applicable); Lot Numbers and Expiration Dates: 1) Lot: 091313023CIUO, Expiration Date: 03/12/14; 2) Lot 092713023CIUO, Expiration Date: 03/26/14 | Class II | Nanosphere has received several reports relating to an increased rate of Processing Errors during procedures performed on the Processor SP caused by Tips in Tip Holder Assemblies for the following products and lots of Extraction Trays. | Nanosphere, Inc. |
