    Reason

    Due to increase in complaints related to leak alarms

    Action

    On 01/17/2025, the firm sent an "URGENT - MEDICAL DEVICE RECALL" Letter via US Postal to customers informing them that Solventum has identified that devices distributed between March 11, 2024 and November 18th, 2024 were released with a leak alarm threshold lower than the design specification. This results in the therapy unit prematurely alarming although there is no leak within the system and potentially continuing to alarm during therapy although there is no visible leak. Customers are instructed to: 1.Screen their facility or other storage locations for the impacted products and lot numbers listed in Attachment 1. 2.Immediately cease use and quarantine any identified product. 3.Complete the Field Notice Receipt and Customer Response Form acknowledging that they have received a copy of this notice and select one of two options: a.Acknowledge they do not have any product impacted by the field action. b.Acknowledge they have product impacted by the field action and complete the catalog number, lot numbers and quantities they have identified and quarantined. 4.Return the form via email to [email protected]. 5.Call Solventum customer service at 1-800-275-4524 to help coordinate the return shipment and receive return labels. 6.Products returned to Solventum will be assessed, reprogrammed, and returned or replaced. a.Product skus and quantities shipped to Solventum will be returned or replaced with the same quantities. b.Returned or replaced product will have a visual identifier confirming the assessment and reprogramming. c.Returned or replaced product may have different lot numbers and expiry dates; Solventum plans to ship available product to help reduce wait times.
