Recalled Hillrom Welch Allyn XScribe Cardiac Stress Testing System software versions V6.0.0 and V6.3.2 may assign duplicate Unique Identifiers (UIDs), causing patient identification mismatches with physiological data in PACS systems.
There is the potential for exam files being assigned duplicate Unique Identifiers (UIDs),. If the system receiving the DICOM file (e.g., Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS)) relies solely on the UID to accept exams, this could lead to a mismatch of the patients identification with their physiological data.
Baxter Healthcare Corporation is recalling specific versions of their Hillrom Welch Allyn XScribe Cardiac Stress Testing System software due to a potential risk of duplicate patient identifiers. If the system receiving DICOM files relies solely on these unique identifiers, it could lead to incorrect patient data matching.
The software may assign duplicate Unique Identifiers (UIDs) to patient exams. If the Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) relies only on these UIDs to accept exams, it could mismatch a patient's identification with their physiological data, potentially leading to incorrect medical records.
Healthcare providers using the XScribe Cardiac Stress Testing System with software versions V6.0.0 or V6.3.2 are most at risk. Patients using these systems for cardiac stress testing may experience incorrect identification if the system's unique identifiers are duplicated.
Check for software versions V6.0.0 or V6.3.2 on the XScribe Cardiac Stress Testing System. The recall includes specific UDI/DI numbers and serial numbers listed in the official notice.
Verify the software version on your XScribe Cardiac Stress Testing System to see if it is V6.0.0 or V6.3.2.
