Description

Draeger Infinity Acute Care System (IACS) Monitoring Solution. Catalog Number MS20783 (Infinity MCable-Dual Hemo) Physiological patient monitoring system.

Reason

The displayed value for the invasive blood pressure measurement of the IACS was different than the actual patient values. Liquid ingress in the cable connection may cause inaccurate measurements. This can happen if the Dual Hemo MCable is used in a non-vertical position, a vertical position but upside down, or laying it on the floor or on the patient bed.
