Product: SL & SLi Series (Mod 15/18/20/25) Linear Accelerator Used for radiation therapy treatments of malignant neoplastics diseases.

FDA root cause: Device Design
Action: The firm, Elekta, sent an "Important Field Safety Notice (IFSN 200 01 103 073 - Electron Applicator Auto-Tracking Defaults)" released on May 28, 2013 and is in the process of being distributed to all customers. The Notice requests users to please adhere to the instructions and advice given in manuals and system dialogues, which explicitly state that a change to auto-tracking values could compromise compliance with safety standards and can cause increased unwanted radiation dose to the patient. All machines should be checked against the default settings attached. If the actual settings are greater than the default settings, then Elekta's recommendation is that the default settings should b re-applied and all relevant physics checks (e.g. beam uniformity, output factor) performed. If, however, auto-tracking values are increased beyond their factory-set defaults, then electron applicator radiation leakage measurements should also be made to ensue that the system remains compliant to IEC safety. All users of Desktop Pro and Integrity 1.1 software will receive a mandatory upgrade to Integrity 1.2 (released 28-Jan-14. The upgrade path to Integrity 1.2 differs depending on system configurations at each customers site, therefore Elekta has released three separate Important Field Safety Modifications in order to upgrade all customers successfully.

About this record

Sourced from the FDA device recall database and the FDA enforcement reports, both ingested from openFDA. The recall record supplies the product, the reason and the product code; the enforcement report supplies the classification. The two datasets are exported by FDA on different days, and the date above is the older of the two, so nothing on this page is newer than it says.

MDM adds the root cause tag, derived from FDA’s own root cause text, and the cross-links to the product code, the clearances named on the record and MDM coverage. Where a recall has not been joined to an enforcement report, no classification is shown.
