Noah Medical is recalling 17 units of the Galaxy System Wired Controller (Model GAL-019), which is part of a robotic bronchoscopy system. The recall was initiated because the controller may have a misaligned calibration, which can cause the medical scope to move unexpectedly during diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. These affected controllers were distributed in California, Indiana, Maryland, Missouri, Ohio, and Pennsylvania.
A misaligned controller can lead to unintended motion of the scope inside a patient's airway. This unpredictable movement could cause internal tissue damage or other procedural complications during delicate lung examinations.
