Field Safety Corrective Actions (FSCA) include removals of medical devices from the market or any other corrective action on devices in use. In general, the product owner (otherwise known as legal manufacturer) implements FSCAs by sending a Field Safety Notice (FSN) to inform operators and users about risks of medical devices. It includes advice on what action should be taken to protect the health or the safety of patients, users or other persons. For example, FSNs may contain information from the product owner that they are voluntarily recalling specific lots of a medical device.

Please note that FSNs are issued by the product owner, registrant or importer of medical devices pursuant to the requirements under the Health Products Act (Cap. 122D). These persons take full responsibility for all information contained in the FSN.

If you receive a FSN from a product owner, registrant or importer, you must always act on it. The Health Sciences Authority makes FSNs publicly available for information only.

If you have a specific question on a FSN, please contact* the product owner, registrant or importer (as the case may be).

*Any contact information provided for each FSCA is correct as at the date of the FSCA notification to the Health Sciences Authority.
