Action
The firm issued the Urgent Medical Device Correction Letter dated 09/27/2019. The letter describes the failure and requests replacement of the affected module with another module. If a replacement is not available, the consignee is directed to follow the instructions below to ensure that your respiratory module O2 reading is within specifications (a) before any new patient case is started and (b) for prolonged patient cases, at a minimum of once a day: 1) Connect the module to the host device; 2) Ensure the module is fully warmed up by having it powered on for minimum 20 minutes; 3) Configure the O2 reading and waveform to the host device screen as defined in the host device instructions; 4) Feed 100% O2 gas flow from the ventilator to the module and observe the O2 reading and waveform; and 5) Ensure the O2 reading is within specifications 100% +/-3% and there is no erratic behavior in the waveform. 6) If you are unable to complete the above steps successfully, remove the respiratory module from clinical use and quarantine.
