Z-0412-2022Leica Microsystems M220 F12 Microscope SystemsIn May 2021, Leica Microsystems received one (1) complaint pertaining to the M220 F12 Surgical Microscope system. There was no patient injury reported for this complaint. However, the identified defect carries some potential injury risk. In the event that this defect may occur, the M220 optics carrier may unintentionally drop into the surgical field, risking contact with the patient.Class IITerminated
Z-2481-2021BOND Ready-To-Use Primary Antibody CDX2 (EP25), REF PA0375Product may not perform as specified in IFU.Class IITerminated
Z-2399-2020Leica ARveo and M530 OH6 microscope systems.Possible unintended interruption of surgical procedures due to equipment shutdown, related to changes in voltage.Class IITerminated
Z-0673-2020BOND Polymer Refine Detection Kit, Catalog No. DS9800. This detection system is for in vitro diagnostic use. Bond Polymer Refine Detection is a biotin-free, polymeric horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-linker antibody conjugate system for the detection of tissue-bound mouse and rabbit IgG and some mouse IgM primary antibodies. It is intended for staining sections of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue on the BOND automated system.BOND Polymer Refine Detection kits (DS9800) were held out of refrigerated storage longer than specified which may exhibit suboptimal staining.Class IIOpen, Classified
Z-1729-2019Leica Cryostats, used to produce frozen sample sections for biological, medical and industrial applications, including in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) applications.The current labelling does not include any specific warning about usage of flammable freezing sprays. Such flammable freezing sprays can potentially ignite and can cause serious injuries.Class IITerminated
Z-0772-2019Leica M220 F12 surgical microscope The Leica M220 F12 surgical microscope is an optical instrument for improving the visibility of objects through magnification and illumination. It can be applied for observation and documentation and for human and veterinary medical treatment.The M220 optics may unintentionally drop into the surgical field, risking contact with the patient.Class IITerminated
Z-0281-2019BOND Slide Labeler Zebra Printer Model TLP3842 and Model GX4301, for use with BOND-III and BOND-MAX instrumentsThe power supply unit for the printer used with the device can potentially overheat or cause a fire hazard because it could contain an improperly-mixed phosphorus compound.Class IITerminated
Z-0019-2019Leica HistoCore SPECTRA CV Coverslipper, used in preparation of histological and cytological tissue samples for microscopic analysis for medical diagnostics.Product was assembled with an isolating fiberglass hose within the oven in the wrong position. This results in improper shielding from potential electrical shock.Class IITerminated

Z-2555-2018Leica Microsystems products labeled as the following: Leica M320 Microscope Systems with Article Numbers 10448419, 10448420, 10448485, 10448486 Product Usage: Intended use of this device is an optical instrument for magnifying and illuminating specimens. It can be applied for observation and documentation and for human and veterinary medical treatment. Not for use in Eye Operations.Possible failure of screws which hold the gas spring fixation bracket in place. Due to this failure, the gas spring, which is fixed to the upper part of the parallelogram, cannot hold up the weight of the optics carrier.Class IITerminated
Z-0838-2019PROVEO 8 Ophthalmic Microscope System optical instrument for improving the visibility of objects through magnification and illumination. It can be applied for observation and documentation and for human and veterinary medical treatment.The observed issues can lead to unexpected interruptions of the optics carrier focus drive movement, intermittent stops of the X-Y coupling movement or sporadic failures in the proper on-screen display functionality of the HDR recording unit. Additionally, an anomaly in the device software may also lead to the unexpected behavior that when a user releases a handle or foot switch button this may not immediately end the actuated functionality. This behavior can only occur in unlikely workflows where a user changes a user profile or a mode change is initiated at the same time as a functional button is activated.Class IITerminated

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.
