Echonous recalls specific Kosmos ultrasound models with iOS software that may cause inaccurate medical measurements in third-party diagnostic software, potentially leading to incorrect diagnoses.
Ultrasound system has a bug in affected iOS software, which after DICOM export, can cause inaccuracy in postprocessed measurements done in 3rd party software, such as PACS or other post-processing software, which may lead to inaccurate diagnoses or treatment.
Echonous is recalling two specific models of their Kosmos ultrasound devices due to a software bug that can cause inaccurate measurements when used with third-party diagnostic software. This could lead to incorrect medical diagnoses or treatments if the measurements are relied upon.
The software bug causes the ultrasound system to produce inaccurate measurements after exporting data in DICOM format. These inaccuracies can then be processed by third-party diagnostic software, potentially leading to incorrect medical diagnoses or treatments.
Healthcare providers using the affected Kosmos ultrasound models with iOS software may be at risk if they rely on measurements from third-party diagnostic software. Patients receiving care from these devices could be affected if the measurements are used for critical decisions.
Check for model numbers P007639 or P007944 on the device. The software version is either 1.0 or 2.1/2.2, and the device is part of a general-purpose diagnostic ultrasound system.
Identify the model number on the device, which should be P007639 or P007944.
