GE sent an Urgent Medical Device Correction letter, dated 11/7/2013 to consignees. The letter described the issue, identified devices affected and stated that users should pay close attention to the patient exam/entry selected from the worklist prior to selecting the Start Exam button to ensure that the system did not update and select an incorrect exam.
