Product

VistaSolution, physiological signal transmitter. A software graphical user interface for use by healthcare professionals to display physiological data collected by the wireless remote monitoring system in healthcare settings. This is a secondary, adjunct patient monitor and is not intended to replace existing standard-of-care patient monitoring.

Reason for recall

A healthcare provider (HCP) noticed a patient had a lowered historic SpO2 reading that the software should have triggered a notification to the care team, but no notification was found. A software defect was encountered causing the lack of notification. The defect could result in exposing a patient to potential hypoxia for a short window of time. The firm is correcting the software to bring the performance back into compliance with specifications.
