  • Causa
    During investigation of the reported complaints from the field, the manufacturer has identified that there is a potential for some circuits of the affected batch to operate incorrectly. the 10 mmf connector of the circuits was slightly oversized during its manufacturing and therefore the device could become loose from the fisher & paykel neopuff’s 10 mmm connector under certain pressure and would not deliver the required pressure to the patient.
  • Acción
    All remaining TB2000 circuits from the affected Batch TB2000-0141 will be replaced with unaffected batches without any additional costs to the customer. Customers are advised to isolate the affected units and contact Parker Healthcare Customer Service Department or their sales representative to organise the return of the recalled stock and to get replacement stock.
