Date Initiated by Firm March 09, 2015
Date Posted March 20, 2015
Recall Status1 Terminated 3 on August 17, 2016
Recall Number Z-1308-2015
Recall Event ID 70712
510(K)Number K121434  
Product Classification System, nuclear magnetic resonance imaging - Product Code LNH
Product MAGNETOM systems Aera/Skyra/Avanto/Verio with software syngo MR D13A ; indicated for use as magnetic resonance diagnostic devices (MRDD) that produce transverse, sagittal, coronal and oblique cross-sectional images, spectroscopic images and/or spectra, and that display the internal structure and/or function of the head, body, or extremities. Other physical parameters derived from the images and/or spectra may also be produced. Depending on the region of interest, contrast agents may be used. These images and/or spectra and the physical parameters derived from the images and/or spectra, when interpreted by a trained physician, yield information that may assist in diagnosis. The MAGNETOM systems may also be used for imaging during interventional procedures when performed with MR compatible devices such as in-room display and MR-safe biopsy needles.

Manufacturer Reason
for Recall		 The gradient output supervision was permanently turned off on the MAGNETOM system, meaning that gradient outputs could exceed IEC60601-2-33 limits and peripheral nerve stimulation could occur.
FDA Determined
Cause 2		 Nonconforming Material/Component
Action A Customer Safety Advisory Notice, dated March 6, 2015, was sent to end users to inform them of the potential issue and what measures were being taken to mitigate possible risks.
