Device Design
Action
Intromedic representatives visited hospitals with the affected products after the first awareness of the problem in order to explain the corresponding issue to our distributor in USA and gave them training on how to check the software before and after the software update. Firm revisited the hospitals in which the software was not conducted by our distributor and carried out the software update since Nov 13th, 2017. The software update was not made immediately as we believe that the reoccurrence possibility of this issue is very low since have not received any other report of the issue from USA and other countries, and the receiver works fine after it is turned off and on again. Some of the hospitals visited refused to conduct software update while being aware of the issue as they were not encountered with the issue. The remaining hospitals in which software update is not conducted will be visited and software update will be conducted by firm's distributor by April.
