Why the product was recalled
Ventilators may generate a combination of alarms which may result in loss of communication, technical alarms being triggered, and loss of ventilation. If the device stops ventilating due to this issue, it may lead to hypoventilation and consequently desaturation, with patient outcomes including hypoxemia and hypoxic injury, which might result in circulatory failure.
