Description

Powerheart AED G3 Automated External Defibrillator Model 9300P Professional series). Cardiac Science AEDs are manufactured by: Manufacturing: Cardiac Science, Inc., 5474 Feltl Road, Minnetonka, MN 55343-7982.

Reason

AEDs may contain an electronic component that does not meet its full operating specifications. The AEDs with this suspect electronic component may not functionn properly and may interfere with the AED's ability to delivery therapy. In the event that charge noise is presrent it will delay the first defibrillation shock in the 3 shock sequence.

Action

Cardiac Science will contact customers via telephone to set up a time for Clinical Educator to visit the customer and conduct a field test on each AED. AEDs that fail the field test will be replaced either on the spot or within 24 hours. AEDs failing the test are either removed by the Clinical Educator or are returned to Cardiac Science upon receiving the new AED. Cardiac Science anticipates testing to be done by the end of December 2004.
