Software versions 6.0.4 to 6.2.1 using Advanced Reporting -possibility that a previously assigned internal patient database ID can be reused for a new patient. It was discovered that this value does not increase when a patient merge activity is executed in a specific sequence
Fujifilm is recalling Synapse Cardiovascular software versions 6.0 to 6.2.1 because a flaw in how patient IDs are handled could cause the same ID to be reused for new patients after a specific database merge. This risk could lead to medical record errors if a patient's information is incorrectly linked to another person.
The software allows patient database IDs to be reused after a specific sequence of merge operations. This could cause the same internal ID to be assigned to multiple patients, potentially leading to medical record errors if patient information is incorrectly linked.
Healthcare providers using Synapse Cardiovascular software versions 6.0 to 6.2.1 for patient management are most at risk, particularly those handling sensitive patient data through the system.
Check if you have Synapse Cardiovascular software versions 6.0 to 6.2.1 installed on your medical system. The product is used for patient management and reporting.
