Siemens ACUSON Juniper Ultrasound System Recall: Clip Store Error May Delay Treatment
Siemens Medical Solutions recalls ACUSON Juniper ultrasound systems with serial numbers 550010-554118. The clip store function may fail when disk full, potentially delaying critical treatment during high-risk procedures like stress echo exams.
Lower-risk recall
The clip store function in the ultrasound imaging system does not work when the system has a disk full error. This could cause a delay in treatment if the ultrasound system is unable to save clips as study documentation during a high risk procedure, such as a stress echo exam.
