- Reason for recall
- Terumo Advanced Perfusion System 1 battery charge is being depleted faster than expected during periods of system shutdown. The System 1 may falsely indicate a longer battery life than actual battery time remaining if not subjected to regular use, such as would occur with a backup system. This may result in unexpected system shutdown. Prolonged battery depletion may cause permanent battery damage.
