Description

Oxygen Masks, Elongated (under chin), Adult Med Conc., No Tubing, Product Code 104-E;

Reason

Reports of tubing detaching from oxygen masks either prior to use (in packaging) or during use were made by different end users and for different batches. The failures were caused by an improper solvent bond between the oxygen tubing and the oxygen mask connector. While the defect affects less than 2% of recalled product, there is a potential for harm when oxygen supply to the user is disrupted.
