Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Approximately 1,772 Cerene Cryotherapy Devices are being recalled because the Instructions for Use (IFU) manual is missing information for Error Code 003 in the troubleshooting section. These devices are used by healthcare professionals for endometrial ablation to reduce menstrual bleeding. The missing information could prevent users from correctly identifying and resolving system errors during the procedure. This recall affects all non-expired lots manufactured through February 2024, specifically Model FGS-7000.

Risk

If Error Code 003 occurs during a procedure and is not listed in the troubleshooting guide, it could lead to confusion or delays in treatment. This lack of instruction may result in the healthcare provider being unable to properly address a device malfunction, potentially impacting the safety or effectiveness of the clinical procedure.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify if you have the Cerene Cryotherapy Device (Model FGS-7000) by checking the packaging or the device handle for the model number and UDI-DI 00850008595035.
  2. Check your device lot numbers against the following affected list: 101635693, 101635694, 101635695, 101635696, 102211255, 102211256, 102211257, 102211258, 102887363, 102887364, 103151029, 103151030, 103151031, 103151032, 103489753, 103489754, 103489755, 103489756, 103489757, 103925402, 104008714, 104008715, 104521903, 104521904, 104521905, 104521906, 104521907, 104808352, 104808353, 105418198, 105733204, and 105733205.
  3. Review your 'Instructions for Use' manual, specifically Table 22 (Summary of LCD Messages and Error Codes), to determine if Error Code 003 is missing from the troubleshooting rows.
  4. Contact your healthcare provider or Channel Medsystems, Inc. at their Berkeley, California office for updated labeling or technical support regarding Error Code 003.
  5. Healthcare professionals should ensure they are using the most current version of the troubleshooting documentation before initiating any procedures with the Cerene device.
