Cause
Getinge have identified a possible water leakage on limited washer disinfectors of model type wd15. if this issue occurs, both an acoustic and visual alarm ("a03 over flow co" on the machines display) will be present. this leakage may take place during operation in the last part of the cleaning and disinfection cycle. the leaking water has not been processed through the machine and from investigations it does not make contact with critical electrical components of the washer.If the issue is left unattended, there can be a leakage of cold water out from the water supply to the machine (up to 2 l/min). if users do not respond to the alarm, there may be a significant amount of water on the floor which may result in a person falling and acquiring an injury. there is also a risk for property damage from the water leak.To date, no injuries have been reported as a result of this issue.
Action
Getinge are advising they are investigating this issue and will provide a solution as soon as it becomes available.
In the interim, users may continue to use the washer, provided that the machine is not left unattended.
Users should react to device alarms immediately.
If an alarm *A03 OVER FLOW CO* is activated, users are advised to do the following;
1. Switch off the main switch;
2. Close shut off valves in the water supply lines; and
3. Contact a service technician.

Philips have identified that the first time an operator selects a new procedure type during a single examination, the shutter position resets to the open position for the new procedure type. if the shutters had previously been changed during the examination, that setting is not retained after the first time the procedure type is changed during a single examination.
Action
Philips is advising this issue will be resolved in a software update, expected to be available in the second half of 2018. Philips will notify users when this software update is available.
Until a software revision that corrects this issue becomes available, users should verify that the desired shutter position is set when performing the run after the first time the procedure type is changed during a single examination. This can be accomplished by first selecting a different procedure and then reselect the original procedure on the Xper Module or on the Data Monitor.

The bd alaris infusion pump administration sets require priming prior to use as described in the directions for use (dfu). bd has identified a potential issue with the bd alaris infusion pump administration sets manufactured during january 2017 through march 2018. the issue pertains to the back check valve and the ability to prime the administration sets. the manufacturer has determined the root causes leading to this issue are associated with: 1. excessive solvent used to connect the tubing to the back check valve leading to an obstruction of the fluid path, thus preventing the priming of the set. 2. a higher “cracking” pressure of the back check valve.To date, no injuries have been reported as a result of this issue.
Action
CareFusion is advising that users can continue to use the product.
When a set cannot be appropriately primed, users may be able to increase the pressure by gently squeezing the IV bag following these steps:
1. If no drops are observed, gently squeeze the bag at the fluid level with one hand once. Observe if set is able to prime.
2. If no drops are observed repeat this up to 3 times.
3. If this method is not effective discard and replace the administration set.
4. Consider having additional administration sets available in clinical areas where high risk infusions are administered.

Cause
Medtronic have identified that when an ap-vs interval measures 100-109ms during a short, nightly device check, a single reset is generated. this reset produces a non-programmable, wireless carealert, but does not alter device therapy. if the device experiences more than five resets due to this timing sequence between in-clinic device interrogations, a full reset (sometimes referred to as a power on reset) will occur. by design, a full reset automatically reverts device operation to rv-only pacing at vvi/65 until the next programmer session is conducted – at which time the full reset condition can be cleared, and the device can be reprogrammed to its prior settings.
Action
Medtronic are advising that a software update, Application SW040 Version 8.1, is available for installation onto all CareLink Model 2090 and Encore programmers to eliminate this issue. Once installed, an in-clinic device interrogation will update the patient's device automatically to prevent this timing interaction from generating a reset.
Surgeons are advised:
- To contact their local Medtronic Representative to schedule installation of the updated Percepta CRT-P Application Software onto Medtronic 2090 and Encore Programmers.
- For a patient who has been implanted with a Percepta CRT-P device, consider scheduling an in-clinic device interrogation as soon as possible following installation of the updated application software, for the patient’s device to receive the automatic update.
