Y75.0: Neurological devices associated with adverse incidents : diagnostic and monitoring devices

Neurological devices associated with adverse incidents: diagnostic and monitoring devices are specifically used to assess, evaluate, and monitor various aspects of the nervous system's functions. Unfortunately, they may occasionally be linked to negative events or complications. These devices can range from electroencephalograph machines used to monitor electrical activity within the brain, to diagnostic imaging systems like magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners. When complications occur, they could be due to technical errors, device malfunctions, incorrect usage, or unpredicted patient responses. The impact of these incidents may vary, often determined by the nature and severity of the malfunction or error. Patients may experience symptoms that are unexpected or more severe than their initial neurological issue. However, these instances do not necessarily indicate a new or worsened neurological condition, but rather potential issues with the devices in use.
