    Narratives

    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    AN INTERMITTENT SIGNAL FROM ONE OF THE SYSTEM DAS BOARDS WAS CAUSING PIXELS IN THE CT IMAGE TO BECOME DARK, WHICH CAUSED AN IMAGE ARTIFACT IN TWO SLICES OF THE RECONSTRUCTION OF THE CT IMAGE. THE ARTIFACT WAS IMMEDIATELY IDENTIFIABLE TO THE OPERATOR AS A SYSTEM ISSUE/MALFUNCTION RATHER THAN AN ACTUAL PATIENT ANATOMICAL ANOMALY. THE INTERMITTENT PIXEL WAS "MAPPED OUT" BY A SERVICE TECHNICIAN AND THE SYSTEM PERFORMED AS INTENDED. THIS CASE WAS INITIALLY DETERMINED TO BE NON-REPORTABLE BY THE MANUFACTURER BECAUSE THERE WAS NO REPORT OF INJURIES AND THE RISK OF HARM TO PATIENTS IF THIS WAS TO REOCCUR WAS DETERMINED TO BE REMOTE / NOT LIKELY TO CONTRIBUTE TO A DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY. THIS CASE IS BEING REPORTED AT THIS TIME BECAUSE DURING A FDA INSPECTION IN APRIL OF 2018 THIS CASE WAS SPECIFIED IN A FDA-483 AS BEING A REPORTABLE EVENT.
