China NMPA Product Recall - Wash/Waste Cartridge (4)

On July 10, 2025, the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) announced a Level II voluntary recall initiated by Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics Inc. The recall, reported by its subsidiary Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics Products (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., targets specific batches of the company's cleaning solution Wash/Waste Cartridge (4), identified by National Medical Device Registration No. 20220668. The primary issue stems from the potential inclusion of incorrect rinse packs within these affected product batches. This action falls under the NMPA's medical device regulatory framework, which classifies the severity of recalls. A Level II classification indicates a situation that could cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences. Significantly, the document clarifies that none of the recalled products were imported into China, implying that Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics Inc. is undertaking the necessary corrective actions in international markets where these batches were distributed.
