MAUDE data represents reports of adverse events involving medical devices. This maude entry was filed from a health professional report with the FDA on 2016-02-22 for NATUS VIKING SELECT 982A0403 manufactured by Natus Neurology, Incorportaed.
[38744004]
Registered internally as a complaint (reference (b)(4)) for further investigation by manufacturer. One day after the incident was reported, the equipment indicated was evaluated on site by a trained natus field service technician, tested, and found to be operating within specification. Electro-cautery equipment was in use by the complainant at the same time as the natus device in question. There are known risks associated with such device to device combinations where electrodes can intercept stray radio frequency energy and result in thermal heating. Natus safety information supplied to end users states such interactions exist and warns end users that electrode disconnection may be needed to avoid such interactions (ref natus safety reference guide, label # (b)(4)). A separate mdr is being filed for the electrodes in use at the time of the incident (ref mdr 3010611950-2016-00003).
