Z-2890-2016The EKOS cart has the catalog number 700-60101. The EKOS cart is a custom infusion stand/cart used to hold and transport the EkoSonic Control Unit. The cart is designed with three poles to hold infusion pumps and fluid bags, a tray on which the EkoSonic Control unit sits and a base designed to hold an Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS). The cart mounts on 4 wheels, two locking and two non-locking.Casters on the EKOS carts may be missing washers which can cause premature wear and dislodgement of the casters/wheels leading to failure.Class IITerminated
Z-2854-2016EkoSonic Endovascular Devices EKOS Intelligent Drug Delivery CatheterThe recalling firm identified ten devices which were distributed and could potentially be non-compliant. These devices potentially underwent a routine manufacturing test with non-compliant parameters, which may result in a small blister in the epoxy over transducers in the treatment zone. It is not known at the time the recall was initiated whether the non-compliant test parameters, or presence of the blisters, adversely affect operation of the device.Class IITerminated
Z-0864-2016EkoSonic Endovascular System, Catalog Number 500-56112. It consists of three main components, a single use EkoSonic Endovascular Device which is comprised of an Intelligent Drug Delivery Catheter (IDDC) and removable MicroSonic Device (MSD), and a reusable EKOS EkoSonic Control System. During use, fluids are delivered through the side-holes of the IDDC. The MSD is placed through the central lumen of the IDDC to deliver ultrasound energy along the length of fluid delivery, dispersing the fluid into the intravascular treatment site. The reusable EKOS EkoSonic Control Unit provides power to the system and the user interface for operator control. A reusable, non-sterile Connector Interface Cable connects the EKOS EkoSonic Control Unit to the EkoSonic Endovascular Device.The EkoSonic kit, including the individually labeled MicroSonic Device (MSD) and Intelligent Drug Delivery Catheter (IDDC) are labeled with a 135 cm working length, and programmed with a 135 cm family code, however the MSD actual working length is 106 cm.Class IITerminated
Z-2148-2015The EKOS EkoSonic Control Unit is intended exclusively for use with the EkoSonic Endovascular Device and the EkoSonic MACH4 Endovascular Device. The EkoSonic Endovascular System consists of three main components: -a single use EkoSonic Endovascular Device which is comprised of an Intelligent Drug Delivery Catheter (IDDC) and -removable MicroSonic Device (MSD), and -a reusable EKOS EkoSonic Control System. During use, fluids are delivered through the side-holes of the IDDC. The MSD is placed through the central lumen of the IDDC to deliver ultrasound energy along the length of fluid delivery, dispersing the fluid into the intravascular treatment site. The reusable EKOS EkoSonic Control Unit provides power to the system and the user interface for operator control. A reusable, nonsterile Connector Interface Cable connects the EKOS EkoSonic Control Unit to the EkoSonic Endovascular Device.The Connector Interface Cable (CIC) was not recognized by the EkoSonic PT-3B control unit.Class IITerminated
Z-0133-2014The EkoSonic Endovascular System employs high frequency (2-2.5 MHz), low power (0.585 watt average power per transducer) ultrasound to facilitate the delivery of physician-specified fluids in the peripheral vasculature and to deliver solutions into the pulmonary arteries. The EkoSonic Endovascular System is intended for the controlled and selective infusion of physician-specified fluids, including thrombolytics, into the peripheral vasculature and the infusion of solutions into the pulmonary arteries. The reusable EKOS EkoSonic Control Unit provides power to the system and the user interface for operator control. A reusable, non sterile Connector Interface Cable connects the EKOS EkoSonic Control Unit to the EkoSonic Endovascular Device.The EkoSonic Control Unit is recalled because it had the incorrect power entry module installed.

Verification record

There is no verification record for this company. Most companies on this site have none: a record exists only where a company asked to be verified and MDM ran the checks, so the absence of one says nothing about the company.

Where there is a record, this is where it appears: what was checked, when it was checked, and the current status. An MDM Verified badge on another website links to a verify address on this domain that resolves to this section. A badge that does not resolve here is not ours.
