Official product description
Masimo SET uSpO2 Cable The Masimo SET uSpO2 Pulse Oximetry Cable is an in-line cable that provides continuous noninvasive monitoring of functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (Sp02) and pulse rate when installed in a compatible OEM host system. Shipping/Package: All Pulse Oximetry cables are shipped non-sterile in a cardboard carton. They are intended to be used non-sterile.
Why the product was recalled
Firm has identified a small number of Oximetry Cables with crossed-internal wires. The effect on performance when these wires are crossed is that when a low SpO2 value is measured, a high SpO2 value would be displayed on the monitoring device.
