  • Causa
    When used in hospital transport and pre-hospital (ems) environments, the connection between the pads/paddles therapy cable (including pads cpr therapy cable, external paddles cable, and internal paddles cable/adapter) and the mrx therapy connection port could experience high levels of stress causing accelerated wear. wear of the connection could prevent the device from sensing that the pads/paddles therapy cable is connected. this wear also could cause the mrx to inappropriately identify the pads therapy cable, external paddles, or internal paddles., pads/paddles therapy cable and therapy connection port wear could pose a risk for patients and/or caregivers.
