San Diego, CA (PRWEB) October 15, 2014 -- AttorneyOne.com, a recognized authority on law, update the website daily regarding all the latest information from the FDA on EnVe and ReVel ventilators.
The US FDA announced on October 10, that several lots of CareFusion 203, EnVe and ReVel ventilators are recalled due to power connection failure. The specific ventilators are used on patients who require respiratory support or mechanical ventilation and weigh a minimum of 11 pounds (5 kg).
The reason for the recall is based on the potential for damage to the devices’ power cord adaptors which can cause loss of power and complete shut off. This could occur because the pins of the external power connector do not always align properly with the input port of the ventilator and could cause a short circuit the ventilator. This could lead to unexpected ventilator’s loss of power and cause serious patient injury or death.
The affected devices’ manufacture dates were from May, 2009 to August 2014 and their distribution dates from December 10, 2010 to August 6, 2014. The FDA classified this recall as Class I, meaning use of the products included in the recall may cause serious injuries or death.
