Brand Name: Olympus SOLTIVE Premium SuperPulsed Laser System
Product Name: SOLTIVE Premium Laser System TFL-PLS
Model/Catalog Number: TFL-PLS containing TFL-CPLU
Product Description: An electricity powered device assembly which emits a high-power laser beam to vaporize/ablate soft tissue with moderate hemostasis, little charring, and a thin zone of necrosis.
Component: No
Reason: Following a complaint investigation, Olympus identified a potential defect in the 24V power supply module in some SOLTIVE laser units which may cause the system to become inoperable. Additionally, smoke or a burning smell may occur. By design, the issue causing the smoke or burning smell would be contained within the internal laser console enclosure and would be self-extinguishing.

Reason: A potential for depressed results for Atellica CH A1c_E when processing Atellica CH RCRP on the same analyzer. Customers processing A1c_E and RCRP on separate analyzers are not impacted by the recall. The frequency and magnitude of the negative bias and imprecision increase over time and are not consistent with the assay Instructions For Use (IFU).
When this issue is present, Quality Control (QC) results demonstrate a negative trend and increased imprecision. The clinical impact of a negative (A1c_E) bias may lead to a delay in diagnosis for diabetes or lead to less-than-optimal treatment for existing diabetes.
