Description
Transducer S7-3t UDI (01)00884838061439 REF 989605406772 Can be used with: CX50, EPIQ 7, Affiniti 50 and Affiniti 70 Ultrasound systems - Product Usage: Diagnostic ultrasound imaging or fluid flow analysis of the human body - particularly transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) studies
Reason
The firm has discovered an issue associated with some Transesophageal (TEE) transducers that were not properly programmed during manufacturing. As a result, the system is unable to correctly measure the temperature on the distal tip of the transducer. This issue may result in affected transducers not initiating auto-cool during use which could result in patient injury
