FDA Determined Cause 2 | Software design |
Action | The recalling firm issued letters dated 4/19/2021 beginning 4/19/2021. For systems that are on Windows 8.1 and above, the issue will be corrected through a software patch. For the units running on Microsoft Windows Server 2008-R2, Windows XP, and Windows 7, the letter instructs that the devices are not to be networked on these systems and that a software patch cannot be made available to these systems since the operating systems are not supported by Microsoft.
A second cover letter and customer notification were issued dated 5/10/2021 updating the second safety instruction regarding the units running on Microsoft Windows Server 2008-R2, Windows XP, and Windows 7 saying that these systems must be rebooted before manually exporting tests. |
