REASON Measurement Error affecting all Sequoia
systems using the PAL video standard configuration and have a perspective PC
installed: 1) The Sequoia" system is operating at a software revision below 8.0.
2) The Sequoia" system is configured to PAL video mode (normal for systems
running at 240V 50 Hz.). 3) While using any of the Perspective" advanced display
options listed above, an image or clip is then stored or saved to the system
hard drive, MOD or a storage device. (This image or clip is known as a secondary
capture.). 4) The secondary capture images/clips are subsequently recalled for
review and measurements are made. If a measurement is taken on these secondary
capture images/clips, an error can occur. The error is 0% if taken in the same
axis that calibration was performed, and ranges proportionately up to 9% if the
measurement is taken orthogonal or at right angles (90 degrees) to the axis that
was used for calibration. If calibration was done on the horizontal axis, then
vertical measurements are underestimated. If calibration was done on the
vertical axis, then horizontal measurements are overestimated.

REASON Image Orientation Incorrect
(Image Shifts) - 1) if the reference image has been calibrated for centering and
the reference image is used for patient positioning, the image will shift when
the positioning tools are used. 2) This problem occurs only when non-square
reference images are used, such as when images are cropped. At this point, the
images will refresh, and the center of the reference image will
shift.

Medtronic Initiates Recall for Selected Heparin-Coated Products Used During Cardiopulmonary Bypass
Medtronic, Inc. today announced that it is initiating a recall of selected products featuring the Carmeda BioActive surface. The affected devices are disposable products used during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) for heart surgeries. Affected products include blood oxygenators, reservoirs, pumps, cannulae, and tubing packs.
Limited lots of Carmeda-coated products were manufactured with heparin found to have been contaminated with oversulfated chondroitin sulfate (OSCS). The patient risk associated with the presence of OSCS in heparin-coated medical devices is not known at this time.
In a separate action, Medtronic is advising customers that selected lots of Trillium-coated products were also manufactured with heparin containing OSCS. Trillium is another biosurface used on CPB products. The amount of heparin on the product is significantly lower than that contained on the Carmeda product. Medtronic's ultimate goal is to remove contaminated products from the market. However, based on the current data, the benefit of using the affected products outweighs any potential risk to patients. Since the maximum possible patient exposure to heparin from Trillium is extremely low, customers can continue to use the affected Trillium products until a replacement is available.
Patients with questions should talk to their physician. Physicians or Pefusionists with medical questions related to Medtronic therapies should contact Medtronic at 1-800-638 0218, Monday – Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. CDT
Atrium Initiates Recall Regarding HYDRAGLIDE™ Brand Heparin-Coated Thoracic Drainage Catheters used for Autotransfusion during Cardiopulmonary Bypass Surgery
Atrium Medical Corporation is recalling selected lots of HYDRAGLIDE™ Brand Heparin-Coated Thoracic Drainage Catheters. Limited lots of Atrium heparin-coated Hydraglide Thoracic Catheters were manufactured with heparin found to have been contaminated with oversulfated chondroitin sulfate (OSCS).
Customers with affected lots are advised to immediately discontinue use of these devices and obtain replacement catheters from Atrium. Atrium will be working with our customers to replace the affected product as soon as possible. If a non-elective procedure requires use of this catheter, we recommend that you do not use the catheter with either a cell saver autotransfusion system or direct autotransfusion chest drainage collection system for cardiopulmonary bypass surgery.
Physicians and hospital personnel with product related questions should call the company at 1-800-5-ATRIUM, Monday –Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM EST.

motor. -Stirrer motors can stall without any flags or motion errors. -If a stall
occurs during a GLUm test near the time of sample inject, results may be
affected. -Affected GLUm results may be high or low.

REASON
Quality Control (Out of Range)- ICT
Calibrator lot number: 0505017, may contain an interferent. Not all vials within
a kit are affected. The investigation determined that the interferent affects
Potassium (K+) only. Use of the affected calibrator vials will generate an
acceptable, but low calibration slope. When Quality Control (QC) is run to
verify the calibration, K+ QC results may be below acceptable QC ranges. This
interferent does not affect Sodium (Na+) and Chloride (CL-).
