Action the firm took

Philips issued Urgent Medical Device Correction letter eCareManager (eCM) Sentry Score to customers via email on 03-Jan-2022. FedEx letters delivered 05-Jan-2022 or 06-Jan-2022. Letter states reason for recall, health risk and action to take: 1 Stop using Sentry Score immediately 2 Share this communication with eCareManager users/Clinicians/ Health Care providers within your organization as soon as possible. 3 Complete the Urgent Medical Device Correction Response form and return to Philips via any one of the below methods: - Email - eCMSentryScore@Philips.com - FedEx Please use the return envelope. The correction will be accomplished in 2 steps Step 1: Philips will contact you to schedule approximately 10 minutes of down time for eCareManager as soon as possible, at your convenience. During this downtime the configuration will be updated, so that Sentry Score will not be accessible. This means you will no longer be able to use Sentry Score. All other functions of eCareManager will continue to work as intended. Step 2: Philips will be creating a software update package, which will be installed at your site for the version of eCareManager software that is running on your system. Sentry Score will be removed from the software as well as any reference to Sentry Score on any of the screens via the software update package. All appropriate documents (clinical user guide etc.) will be provided to you as part of this update. As soon as the software update packages are available, you will be contacted by Philips to update the system with the software update package to remove Sentry Score. If you need any further information or support concerning this issue, please contact your local Philips representative: Email: eicusupport@philips.com
