  • Causa
    Maquet cardiopulmonary has received complaints associated with a failure of the power supply board of the hcu 30. an internal investigation showed that a drop of more than 10% voltage can cause an overheating and subsequent failing of the ntc (negative temperature coefficient) r56 thermistor of the power supply board. this failure typically occurs when the compressor is switched on, i.E. before patient connection. a defective thermistor results in an inoperable compressor or in an inoperable hcu 30. there are no complaints reported associated with a patient injury or death.
