Reason for recall

The SureStart function may not operate in the usual manner, and you may obtain abnormal analysis results when using the cerebral blood flow analysis function.

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.
