Description

Galaxy System (GAL-001). Intended to provide bronchoscopic visualization of and access to patient airways for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.

Reason

Bronchoscopic visualization system power supplies have defective semiconductor components that may fail unexpectedly, which could result in an aborted procedure since it is a non recoverable failure. Manual removal of the bronchoscope when the system is not functioning can increase the chance of injury to the tissues of the lung as the scope is withdrawn including the possibility of pneumothorax.
