Description

Kodak Direct View DR7500 System, Catalog #s 855-1046, 879-1345, 161-9139 --- A stationary X-Ray System. Device Listing # E222512.

Reason

The x-ray systems do not indicate the field size when the system's detector is turned off and the collimator is in manual mode. This results in the systems being noncompliant with the field indication performance standards of section 1020.31(e)(2)& (3) of 21Code of Federal Regulations (CFR).

Action

On 2/21/07, Eastman Kodak notified CDRH of its proposed Corrective Action Plan CAP). The CAP was approved by CDRH under the following conditions: (1) Kodak will visit each user facility, and apply dial indicator labels to the collimator knobs, apply a field size label to the collimator housing, and verify that each system complies with the field indication performance standard. (2) Kodak will prepare adequate instructions for the assembly/installation and testing of the dial indicators labels and field size labels. These instructions are to be furnished to all owners of the Kodak Direct View DR 7500 Systems. (3) Kodak will supplement the Kodak DR 7500 system product report with a copy of the adequate instructions. (4) Kodak will perform 100% verification of the recall effectiveness. (5) Kodak will not charge for the corrections and will reimburse the owner for any out-of-pocket expenses. (6) Kodak will notify the manufacturer of the Ralco 302 ACS collimators, Ralco, that the collimator is noncompliant with the performance standard. Kodak has reported that the CAP was completed as of 5/07/07.
