Recall Action Instructions |
1. Customers are to contact the system IT administrator to confirm that their system is impacted by this problem. This action is only necessary if the interfacing system (e.g., PACS) is configured to receive DICOM results and relies solely on the UID for results - patient/order matching.
2. For the products HScribe V6.1.0 – V6.4.1, RScribe V6.0.0 – V6.2.3, XScribe V6.0.0 – V6.3.2 a correction can be implemented by the system IT administrator to address this problem and is already available in customers current version of software. The New Series Instance UID option will need to be activated. Baxter will work with customers to confirm, if applicable, that the correction has been implemented.
3. For the Welch Allyn Diagnostic Cardiology Suite v2.1.0, customers should contact Baxter Technical Service to request and schedule the correction. |
