  • Notas adicionales en la data
    According to the company, there is a risk that D-fend condenser units in the field are defective. These defective units can lead to delays in the measurement of CO2, O2 and anesthetic agents. The measurement of CO2 is important both in the Operating Rooms and Intensive Care Units (ICUs) so that the measurement of patient ventilation is possible. When this problem is detected by the equipment, the connected monitoring device will issue an audible alarm and will display the following warning messages: "low gas sample flow", "replace water trap" condenser) or "sampling line blocked". Ignored or prolonged alarms can lead to an adverse outcome if the CO2 value changes rapidly in certain clinical conditions. ### Update of the field action: UPDATED ON 10/23/2017, the company presented the report of completion of the field action proving the sending of the safety notice to the client with evidence of science and all actions completed.
  • Causa
