  • openFDA Device Enforcement Report-date coverage June 20, 2012–July 08, 2026 Known gap: openFDA describes 2004-present coverage, but the current export has no report-date records in this interval.
  • openFDA Device Recall event_date_initiated coverage June 01, 1997–June 30, 2026

Enforcement coverage uses report dates; product initiation dates can precede those bounds. Device-enrichment coverage uses FDA event_date_initiated.

App-derived interpretation

Unknown reason.no_named_rule · v1.0.0
The firm has discovered an issue associated with some Transesophageal (TEE) transducers that were not properly programmed during manufacturing. As a result, the system is unable to correctly measure the temperature on the distal tip of the transducer. This issue may result in affected transducers not initiating auto-cool during use which could result in patient injury

These labels are deterministic app interpretations, not FDA categories.
