If problems occur with medical devices, the manufacturer or the person who assembles the systems or procedure packs (system and procedure pack producer (SPPP)) may have to initiate a Field Safety Corrective Action (FSCA). Swissmedic monitors all FSCAs for medical devices marketed in Switzerland or Liechtenstein.
Field Safety Notices (FSNs) involving products on the Swiss or Liechtenstein market are published on the Swissmedic website in the form and with the content provided by the manufacturer or SPPP.
