Handy Solutions Neck & Shoulders Heating Pad, Number: 25607, Manufactured by Ninbo Unico Products Co., Ltd
If heating pad is folded while in use, the power density increases in the folded area causing excessive temperatures, which can also be caused by placing pad under the body, then the high limit device is unable to sense the higher temperature so power is not terminated. May cause a burning smell prior to melting/burning potentially causing burns to persons and property.

FDA DevicesTandem pumps are battery-operated infusion pumps capable of both basal and bolus delivery of insulin. The pumps utilize a motor-driven mechanism to deliver insulin from within a disposable cartridge, through an infusion set, into a patient s subcutaneous tissue. As with current insulin infusion pumps on the U.S. market, the desired timing and quantity of the insulin delivery is programmed by the user (i.e., the patient).
Tandem pumps are battery-operated infusion pumps capable of both basal and bolus delivery of insulin.

As with current insulin infusion pumps on the U.S. market, the desired timing and quantity of the insulin delivery is programmed by the user (i.e., the patient).
The Czech language user guide contained multiple translation errors. The most significant error was that it incorrectly instructs users to verify that the infusion set is connected to the body, when it should instead direct users to confirm that the infusion set is not connected to the body. Following this instruction could result in unintended insulin delivery, potentially leading to a hypoglycemic event.

Custom Abutment AS Ti, for Straumann RC, incl. TAN screw; Catalog Number/Art.: 010.5438;
A material mix-up had occurred during the manufacturing of Straumann¿ Custom Abutments. More specifically, a raw material bar of TAN-material (SAP #701924 / Lot 7130439) was incorrectly identified as a Titanium Bar Ti Gr4 D (SAP #701922 / Lot 7130430). As a result, RC Titanium abutments were manufactured using the TAN Bar material on Mill-from-Bar Machine 396-06.
