  • Causa
    Abbott molecular has identified that the system liquid sensor and liquid waste sensor on the m24sp instrument system may be disabled due to an issue with the m24sp application database. if the system liquid sensor and liquid waste sensor are disabled, users will not be notified by the m24sp that the system liquid container needs to be filled or that the liquid waste container needs to be emptied.
  • Acción
    Customers are advised that if they follow the Daily Maintenance and Operating Instructions within the m24sp Operations Manual there will be no impact as the containers are large enough to hold sufficient amounts of system liquid and liquid waste for daily use. A Field Service Representative will ensure that the System Liquid and System Waste sensors are enabled during installation of Application Database version 7.0.

  • Comentario del fabricante
    “We are in constant communication with regulatory agencies and competent authorities worldwide which allows us to implement global recalls or in-country communication quickly and effectively,” Abbott, which now owns St. Jude Medical told ICIJ in a statement. In addition to sending global notices to physicians worldwide, we also make sure that product advisories are available online and classification of product recalls and product advisories are determined by global regulatory bodies which can impact the timing in any given country. MD companies follow varying regulations in different countries. In come countries software is not regulated so a recall in one country related to software would not be classified as a recall or field action in another. In addition, review cycles within the regulatory process can be different in each country which can impact communication and recall timing.
