GE Healthcare CARESCAPE Monitor B650 and CARESCAPE Monitor B850. The CARESCAPE Monitor B650 is a multi-parameter patient monitor intended for use in multiple areas and intra-hospital transport within a professional healthcare facility. The CARESCAPE Monitor B650 is intended for use on adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients and on one patient at a time. The CARESCAPE Monitor B650 is indicated for monitoring and recording of, and to generate alarms for, hemodynamic (including ECG, ST segment, arrhythmia detection, ECG diagnostic analysis and measurement, invasive pressure, non-invasive blood pressure, pulse oximetry, cardiac output, temperature and mixed venous oxygen saturation), impedance respiration, airway gases (CO2, O2, N2O and anesthetic agents), spirometry, gas exchange, and neurophysiological (including electroencephalography, Entropy, Bispectral Index (BIS) and neuromuscular transmission) status. The CARESCAPE Monitor B650 can be a stand-alone monitor or interfaced to other devices. It can also be connected to other monitors for remote viewing and to data management software devices via a network. The CARESCAPE Monitor B650 is intended for use under the direct supervision of a licensed healthcare practitioner, or by personnel trained in proper use of the equipment in a professional healthcare facility. The CARESCAPE Monitor B650 is not intended for use during MRI. The CARESCAPE Monitor B850 is a multi-parameter high acuity patient monitor intended for use in multiple areas within a professional healthcare facility. The CARESCAPE Monitor B850 is intended for use on adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients and on one patient at a time. The CARESCAPE Monitor B850 system is indicated for monitoring of Hemodynamic (including ECG, ST Segment, Arrhythmia Detection, ECG Diagnostic Analysis and Measurement, Invasive Pressure, Noninvasive Blood Pressure, Pulse Oximetry, Cardiac Output, Temperature, Impedance Respiration and SvO2 (Mixed Venous Oxygen Saturation), Airway Gases (Fi/Et C02, 02, N20 and Anesthetic Agent), Spirometry, Gas Exchange (02 Consumption (VO2), C02 production (VCO2), energy expenditure (BE), and respiratory quotient (RQ)) and neurophysiological (including electroencephalography (EEG), Entropy, Bispectral Index (BIS) and Neuromuscular Transmission (NMT) Monitoring) status. The CARESCAPE Monitor B850 provides alarms, trends, snapshots and events, and calculations and can be connected to displays, printers and recording devices. The CARESCAPE Monitor B850 can be a stand-alone monitor or interfaced to other devices. It can also be connected to other monitors for bed to bed viewing and to data management software devices via a network. The CARESCAPE Monitor B850 is intended for use under the direct supervision of a licensed healthcare practitioner, or by personnel trained in proper use of the equipment in a professional healthcare facility. In addition to the healthcare practitioner, the CARESCAPE Monitor B850 is designed to provide configuration and troubleshooting capabilities to qualified service personnel. The CARESCAPE Monitor B850 is not intended for use during MRI. Class II

Reason: GE Healthcare has recently become aware of potential safety issues associated with the CARESCAPE Monitor B850 and CARESCAPE Monitor B650. These included 25 issues related to NIBP (Non-InvasiVentilation Alarms:ve Blood Pressure) , ECG, Central Monitor, General, Tram, and Bed to Bed Issues.

GE Healthcare Innova IGS 630. Biplane Cardiovascular and Interventional Imaging System. Product Usage: The angiographic X-ray systems are indicated for use for patients from newborn to geriatric in generating fluoroscopic and rotational images of human anatomy for cardiovascular, vascular and non-vascular, diagnostic and interventional procedures. Additionally, with the OR table, the angiographic X-ray systems are indicated for use in generating fluoroscopic and rotational images of human anatomy for image-guided surgical procedures. The OR table is suitable for interventional and surgical procedures. The Cathiab Frontiers solutions are indicated for use in conjunction with single plane and biplane GE angiographic X-ray systems and imaging / data medical devices used in interventional and surgical cathlab environments and cleared for commercial distribution. The Cathiab Frontiers solutions are integrated GE angiographic X-ray and imaging / data medical devices that simplify the end-to-end clinical workflow in the cathlab by implementing: 1) Communication protocols for exchanging and automatically synchronizing patient, exam, system, and image information between the angiographic X-ray systems and the imaging / data medical devices. 2) Communication protocols for the control of imaging / data medical device functions from the angiographic X-ray systems user interface. 3) Interfaces for displaying the imaging / data medical device output on the monitor display solutions of the GE angiographic X-ray systems. Class II

Reason: GE Healthcare has recently become aware of a potential safety issue with respect to IGS 630 Imaging Systems. While performing fluoroscopy on a biplane fluoroscopy unit, there is a potential for loss of the x-ray imaging function when the user changes the size of the lateral FOV (Field of View) and releases the biplane footswitch pedal simultaneously. This could lead to a system lock up requiring
