Why it was recalled

Device for bronchoscopic visualization, patient airway access has software issue: if application restarts after patient-side selection, prior to bronchoscope loading, application will re-initialize to patient-left position; and if right position was previously selected, this may lead to unanticipated robotic arm positioning toward patient-left, may result in contact with patient/endotracheal tube.

FDA root cause category: Software design

What the company is doing

On 1/21/2026, correction notices were emailed to customers informing them of the following: Should a MONARCH application restart occur during procedure setup, please clear the fault message and then perform a full system restart. A full system restart will prevent this issue from occurring as it will require the user to perform patient-side selection and alignment again. Once the software update to address the issue is available, the firm will contact customers to schedule installation. Complete and return the acknowledgement form via email to [email protected] This notice needs to be passed on to all those who need to be aware within your organization or to any organization where the potential affected devices have been transferred. Please transfer this notice to other organizations on which this action has an impact. Maintain awareness on this notice and resulting action for an appropriate period to ensure effectiveness of the corrective actions.
