There are 3 issues: 1) Under certain conditions, real time waveforms may not be accurately plotted or displayed. 2) The oxygen saturation (SpO2) numeric value displayed on the device may freeze. 3) In auto cycle mode, if the NIBP communication is lost, the pump would not cycle and the non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) numeric value displayed on the device would not update.
A problem has been detected in the Philips IntelliVue MX4O that, if it were to occur, could affect the performance of the equipment. The volume of the MX4O speaker in these devices may be diminished or not audible above 4,500 feet when operating in Monitor Mode. These devices may intermittently exhibit Speaker Malfunct INOP messages after the Power On Self-Test. The issue is only apparent when the device is being used in Monitor Mode at an altitude of greater than 4,500 feet.
Automated external defibrillators may not fully meet IPx5 water ingress specification. The device may fail to function should water intrusion occur.
