Official product description

2008T, Hemodialysis Delivery System Product Indicated for acute and chronic dialysis therapy.

Why the product was recalled

While reviewing documentation for the next software release of the 2008T, an R&D technician identified that setting the UF goal to '0' introduces a discrepancy between the UF rate displayed and the actual UF pump rate. The software anomaly is also applicable to the 2008T Machines that contained the 2.63 Bug Fix per DCAF 17-088. 2008T Upgrade kits that contained the 2.63 Bug Fix are also affected. Additionally, SW version 2.64 (in design freeze) is also impacted by this anomaly.
