Action
Medical Device Recall notifications were sent to the 4 affected sites on June 11, 2014. Letters describe the problem and the potential health risk. The two model numbers of the endoscope are listed and the statement that ISI will perform a software upgrade to the da Vinci System and replace the endoscopes. Letters request that the following actions take place: - Ensure that all appropriate personnel are fully informed of the information provided in the notification letter. - Complete and return the acknowledgement form using instructions provided. - Retain a copy of The letter for your records. Intuitive representatives will schedule a site visit to provide the re-calibrated endoscope, update the software and ensure that it is properly integrated with the da Vinci Xi Surgical System.
