Related Recalls
A mechanical defect on a printed circuit board (PCB) as a result of PCB separating process. This defect might cause the ventilator to either fail at startup (no patient involvement) or during the use of the device enter ambient state, resulting in an interruption of ventilation.
Breathing circuit set, coaxial, 1.80 m, with flow sensor and expiratory valve set, REF: 260128, used with HAMILTON-C1, HAMILTON-T1 and HAMILTON-MR1 ventilators.
Hamilton Medical AG
Ventilator coaxial breathing circuit may have a crack in blue tubing, which is used to deliver fresh gas to the patient. The crack will compromise inspiratory and expiratory flows, leading to partial or complete rebreathing of exhaled gases, which could lead to acute hypercapnia, respiratory acidosis, and if unrecognized organ dysfunction.
Ventilator HAMILTON-C6, PN: 160021
Hamilton Medical AG
Ventilator may enter sensor fail mode, ventilation may not re-initiate, after patient is reconnected, which may cause hypoxia, if this sequence occurs: 1)User presses O2 enrichment, 2)User disconnects endotracheal tube for open suctioning, 3)Sensor error initiated, sensor fail mode occurs, 4)Patient is re-connected with sensor fail mode active, 5) Ventilation is not re-initiated by the ventilator.
