Manufacturer Reason for Recall | The firm has become aware of the potential for an unintended merge of multiple patients when using syngo.plaza version VA20 with Server Farm setup integrated to a RIS. Sporadically it can happen that certain Patient IDs in the database are deleted and sent to NULL. This can cause incorrect merging with patients that already had a NULL Patient ID. |
