  • Causa
    When using the epiq 7 ultrasound system auto 2d quantification (a2dq) and auto cardiac motion quantification (acmq) applications to calculate end-systolic volume (esv), the reported esv may be smaller esv calculated by manual tracing without the use of epiq 7 ultrasound system.Correspondingly, the left ventricular ejection fraction (ef) calculated using these applications may be higher than the ef calculated by manual tracing without the use of epiq 7 ultrasound system. philips’ investigation has found that this difference may occur in cases where the ef is less than approximately 40%.
  • Acción
    Philips is providing instructions to assist end users to determine if they are affected by this issue. Philips has developed a software update to correct the issue. A CD with the new version of the software will be sent to all end users for installation. Until the software has been upgraded, the issue can be avoided by ensuring that left ventricular volumes and ejection fraction are calculated by using either the on-cart manual analysis package or off-cart manual analysis package for your primary assessment. This action has been closed-out on 05/08/2016.
