- Action
- NeuroLogica Corporation issued Urgent Medical Device Correction letter to customers via email June 6, 2023. Letter states reason for recall, health risk and action to take: Users may continue to use the NL5000 system with caution, ensuring they are aware of the potential drive issues due to the wheels. This notice needs to be passed on all those who need to be aware within your organization or to any organization where the potentially affected devices have been transferred. Please transfer this notice to other organizations on which this action has an impact. Please maintain awareness on this notice and resulting action for an appropriate period to ensure effectiveness of the corrective action. NeuroLogica will undertake the voluntary corrective action considering the possibility of delay in patient treatment if the scanner is not operational due to battery failure, as well as the potential for the scanner to halt mid scan. The hardware upgrades provide additional safeguards by improving the design to minimize any risks of the above situations from happening. Service engineers will correct all affected devices free of charge and contact you to arrange for the correction starting June 2023. All corrections in the field will be completed by December 31, 2023. Contact customer service team at 1-888-564-8561 (US/Canada) or 978-564-8561 (International) and [email protected].
