Reason

On ultrasound systems, when Cardiac DICOM SR feature is configured to display either minimum or maximum measured value, and multiple cardiac region measurements are made, and results are exported into the SR feature, then The SR viewer will display the LAST measured value, not min or max, which could contribute to patient condition misdiagnosis or negatively influence patient management decisions.

Root cause

Software design

Action

On 2/23/24, correction notices were sent to customers informing them of the following: This issue is specific to and limited to the use of the Cardiac DICOM SR feature: - When a user uses and configures the Cardiac DICOM SR feature to display either the MINIMUM (Min) or the MAXIMUM (Max) measured value, AND - Makes multiple measurements of the cardiac region during an examination, AND - Exports the results into the Cardiac DICOM SR feature, THEN - The Cardiac DICOM SR viewer will NOT display the MINIMUM (Min) or MAXIMUM (Max) value and will instead display the LAST measured value. In that case, the displayed measurement in the Cardiac DICOM SR viewer may NOT be the Minimum (Min) or MAXIMUM (Max) value measured during the examination. To avoid potential misdiagnosis by an over- or underrepresented measured value, it is recommended to refer to the measurement values displayed on the Ultrasound System Final Report when the configuration is to display the Min or Max value. Firm recommends a review of previous cardiac ultrasound examination results where the clinical assessment was reviewed using a DICOM SR viewer. Your Customer Service Engineer from will contact you to schedule a facility visit to update the system or inform you of a remote update when the software update is available. The software update is currently under development and estimated to be available by spring/summer of 2024.
