Recalled FujiFilm Arietta 850 ultrasound systems with specific software versions (V1.0.0 to V4.1.3) may show incorrect mitral regurgitation and valve measurements, risking inaccurate cardiac diagnoses.
Diagnostic ultrasound system with the specified software version and used in conjunction with a Fujifilm (formally Hitachi) transducer does not display the measurement results correctly with two cardiology measurement functions: Mitral Regurgitation Flow (MR Flow) Measurement; Mitral Valve (MV) Measurement. In addition there is an error in the instruction manual.
FujiFilm recalls Arietta 850 ultrasound systems with software versions from V1.0.0 to V4.1.3 because they display cardiac measurements incorrectly. This could lead to wrong diagnoses for mitral regurgitation and valve issues, which is serious for patients needing accurate heart assessments.
