What the company is doing

Agfa Healthcare sent an "URGENT FIELD SAFETY NOTICE" dated June 6, 2014, to the US and Canadian customers. The letter described the safety alert and mitigation. Acknowledgment, via FAX-Back or email, that the information was received and understood was requested from the customers. Although medical staff are required to disinfect hands on a frequent basis, users must ensure that their hands are dry before using the touch screen of the DX-0100 because liquid residue may activate the action buttons on the touch screen. Customers were instructed: "Do not operate touch screen monitor with wet hands! "Do not let liquids come in contact with the touch screen while the DXD 100 is powered on! "Always double check your parameter settings prior to exposing the patient. We would like to remind you of this specific warning statement in the DX-0100 User Manual. Please complete the feedback form as soon as possible and return it to us by June 16, 2014. Should the above information not apply to your facility or should the device have been transferred to another organization, please be so kind as to indicate this on the attached feedback form and pass this Urgent Field Safety Notice to the organization where the device has been transferred.
