Reason for recall
After completion, ultrasound system's Stress Echo may not terminate if user does not manually terminate the protocol. During next patient exam, an abnormal confirmation message will be displayed "Same view was saved in this phase. Do you use this image with StressEcho Review?" If "no", acquired images not saved, and if "yes" images assigned to the previous patient; could cause treatment delay.
Device recalls are issued when a component, software or design fault could cause the device to fail or give wrong readings. Many are corrections applied in the field rather than physical returns.
