K060259: The Innova 3131IQ (3131-IQ) and 2121 IQ (2121-IQ) biplane systems are indicated for use in generating fluoroscopic images of human anatomy for vascular angiography, diagnostic and interventional procedures, and optionally, rotational angiography procedures. They are also indicated for generating fluoroscopic images of human anatomy for cardiology, diagnostic, and interventional procedures. They are intended to replace fluoroscopic images obtained through image intensifier technology. These devices are not intended for mammography applications. K061163: For Innova 2121IQ, Innova 3131IQ, Innova 4100, Innova 4100IQ, Innova 3100, Innova 3100IQ, Innova 2100IQ devices with Innova IVUS option: The Innova systems are indicated for use in generating fluoroscopic images of human anatomy for vascular angiography, diagnostic and interventional procedures, and optionally, rotational imaging procedures. They are also indicated for generating fluoroscopic images of human anatomy for cardiology, diagnostic, and interventional procedures. They are intended to replace fluoroscopic images obtained through image intensifier technology. Those devices are not intended for mammography applications.

Why Was This Recalled?

GE Healthcare has recently become aware of a potential safety issue with respect to the Innova 2121IQ & Innova 3131IQ Systems. While performing a fluoroscopic acquisition with the Innova 2121IQ or Innova 3131IQ systems, there is a potential for loss of usable imaging mode which requires the system to restart in order to recover.
