During an internal review, Medline identified higher-than-expected endotoxin levels on a representative Medline neuro sponge product, indicating that in-market product may be out-of-specification for endotoxin.
Heraeus, PALAMIX uno. Material Number: 66057893.
Based on long-term stability testing, it was determined that in units older than 1.5 years (17 months) the mixing rod may, in rare cases, come loose from its lock during the mixing process. Notification is to reduce the shelf life from 3 years to 1.5 years (17 months).

ventricular fibrillation (VF) during radiofrequency (RF) therapy with the Medtronic Sphere-9 catheter in patients who have a Biotronik Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) or Biotronik Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy-Defibrillator (CRT-D) implanted. The observation is caused by an interaction between the Sphere-9 catheter current flow and a safety feature built into Biotronik ICDs and CRT Ds. Medtronic recommends physicians use increased caution when using the Sphere-9 catheter for RF ablation therapy in patients implanted with a Biotronik ICD/CRT-D system, and to ensure external defibrillation systems are readily available.

Updated software, Brady software maintenance release 6 (SMR6), is now available for the ACCOLADE" family of pacemakers and cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemakers (CRT-Ps)1 and the advisory population is expanding to include all CRT-P and dual-chamber extended life (DR-EL) devices. Dual chamber modes are specifically indicated for treatment of the following: " Conduction disorders that require restoration of AV synchrony, including varying degrees of AV block " VVI intolerance (i.e., pacemaker syndrome) in the presence of persistent sinus rhythm " Low cardiac output or congestive heart failure secondary to bradycardia

i-STAT EG7+ cartridge; List Number: 03P76-25;
Approximately 7.6% of cartridges from specific i-STAT EG7+ (list number 03P76-25), i-STAT EG6+ (list number 03P77-25) and i-STAT G3+ (list number 03P78-26) cartridge lots in the U.S. marketplace may report higher than expected PCO2 and lower than expected pH results due to a manufacturing issue. A falsely high pCO2 together with a falsely low pH makes the blood gas appear as if the patient is in severe respiratory acidosis. If the clinician believes the values are real, it may trigger unnecessary or even harmful interventions such as unnecessary ventilator changes, unnecessary medications, potential harm from overcorrection, or delays in identifying true problems.
