Reason

The firm is recalling their Delta family of patient monitors software due to cybersecurity vulnerabilities, which may cause the device to reboot, lose functionality, and/or lose communication.

Action

On February 8, 2019, the firm, Drager, notified affected customers of the recall via an "Urgent: Medical Device Recall" letter. Customers were informed that the existing software had cybersecurity vulnerabilities and that software version VF10.1 would mitigate these issues. Customers were asked to complete a Customer Acknowledgment and Response Form and return it to Drager via fax 215-372-2940 or email to [email protected]. Your local Draeger Service representative will contact you to schedule an appointment for upgrading your systems software once a compatible version has been released for distribution.
