What the authority reported
GE HealthCare has become aware of an issue with certain Vivid ultrasound systems where, due to a slow DICOM Worklist response time, incorrect patient name and demographics can be displayed on the ultrasound scanner screen rather than the intended patient selected by the user.
What to do
Follow the instructions in the official notice — recall remedies (refund, repair, replacement, or disposal) are defined by the issuing authority and the responsible business, and they differ per recall. Do not rely on summaries, including this one.
