Description

LIFEPAK 20 defibrillator/monitor

Reason

Therapy connectors may have connector sockets that do not meet design specs - short drill depth. Interruption of the connections may cause unexpected, intermittent or complete loss of pacing and defibrillation functions.

Action

On 3/22/06, the firm began sending out letters dated March 2006, and flagged URGENT MEDICAL DEVICE CORRECTION. The letters advised customers of the issue and that a service representative would visit and inspect the therapy connector sockets, and replace the therapy connector and the mating cable if short drill sockets are found.
