|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mar 21, 2025 | Class II | Z-1819-2025 | Process control | OEC Elite and OEC 3D Mobile C-Arms Exceeding 4% Source to Image Distance in X-ray Field. |
| Nov 21, 2024 | Class II | Z-0704-2025 | Process control | Due to manufacturing issue of insufficient sealing of X-ray tubes and can result in a potential oil leak and loss of fluoroscopic imaging capability. |
| May 15, 2023 | Class II | Z-2278-2023 | Process control | Image intensifiers on systems, used to provide fluoroscopic/digital spot images can become detached if the systems encounter a large impact force when moved, which may result in the image intensifier falling, which could lead to injuries… |
| Jun 10, 2021 | Class II | Z-2161-2021 | Under Investigation by firm | There is a potential that the coin cell battery used to monitor X-Ray tube temperature may deplete early causing the system to become inoperable. |
