Firm Action

GE Healthcare sent an Urgent Medical Device Correction notice to its consignees on 05/30/2023 by mail (traceable means). The notice explained the problem with the instrument and provided the following: "You can continue to use your device. Please follow clinical practice guidelines, which include having a backup imaging plan when performing time-critical examinations or image-guided interventions." The devices will be corrected at no charge to the consignee.
