Recalled Products

Da Vinci Surgical System - IS3000 and Da Vinci SI System - Vision System Cart

Reason

It has been identified that the metalized coating on the IS3000 HD lamp module (Part number: 950093-05) may be incompatible with the illuminator (Part number: 951183-06) control board, leading to an erroneous red preventive maintenance advisory (PMA) that shows up on all monitors and cannot be dismissed by the user.  This error does not affect the lighting of the lamp module in the normal fashion, and there are no reports of lamp failure that have been associated with this issue.
