Recalls
-
- Terminated Z-0667-2017
Firm received reports about "acquisition errors" and the deterioration of material covering the articulating section of the Z6Ms transesophageal transducer.
-
- Terminated Z-1592-2016
While imaging with a transesophageal (TEE) transducer (Z6Ms, V5Ms, or V7M), user may lose the ability to control the color region of interest, the pulsed wave or continuous wave Doppler gate or cursor, the M-mode cursor, the 2D field of view, or the RES region of interest with the trackball.
-
- Terminated Z-0182-2016
Siemens will provide all customers a new version of system software (VA35E or VB10C depending on the hardware configuration). Hardware fixes will be implemented to address situations where the metal component used to engage the wheel lock becomes disconnected, and where the system locks up due to misalignment between the bezel and MPI board, in all units that have not already been corrected.
-
- Terminated Z-2783-2015
The ACUSON SC2000 ultrasound system considers uppercase/lowercase differences in the same patient name as unique patient instances when registered on the same ultrasound system. If these differences are not corrected at the time of registration, the system does not capture images or clips.
-
- Terminated Z-1056-2015
The bolt holding the control panel of the ACUSON SC2000 in a fixed position may fail and the Control panel cannot be locked into position.
-
- Terminated Z-1668-2014
Potential malfunction due to a software issue for ACUSON SC2000 ultrasound systems using software version 3.5 (VA35) when using the stress echo feature which could cause the need for the study to be repeated.
-
- Terminated Z-1667-2014
Software issues with ACUSON SC2000 ultrasound with software version 3/5 (VA35) - may incorrectly display the color flow data in the wrong position and when Doppler Frequency is adjusted, the system does not restart the pulsed wave Doppler or continuous wave Doppler waveform.
-
- Terminated Z-0824-2014
The user interface assembly on the ACUSON SC2000 may become loose with the potential for the entire module to fall off of the ultrasound system.
-
- Terminated Z-0825-2014
The locking mechanism that is intended to hold the control panel in a fixed position can become loose and fail to lock the rotation of the control panel, making it unable to steer or control during transport.
-
- Terminated Z-0052-2014
Software issue results in inaccurate 3D image may result in ablation in wrong location.
-
- Terminated Z-1081-2013
When using the V5M transducer, the display of the temperature on the ACUSON SC2000 system can be lower than the actual temperature of the V5M transducer. This occurs only if the system hardware contains revision 4 of the MPI Board. There is a potential to cause esophageal burns in patients.
-
- Terminated Z-1584-2015
In certain situations, loss of post exercise images can occur in Stress Echo.
-
- Terminated Z-1581-2015
In some cases, the system is unable to capture a clip or image during a routine scan.
