Intermittent contact of temperature probe adaptors can cause a loss of temperature monitoring which can cause a delay in care when an alarm is missed.
Starting July 3, 2008 the firm issued a "MEDICAL DEVICE CORRECTION" letter notifying their customers of the potential hazards with the use of probe adapter, PN 700-031-00. All letters have a return receipt to verify each customer received the medical device correction letter. The firm will replace all PN 700-0031-00 adaptors with a replacement adaptor from their initial distributor. The firm initiated sending new adaptors separately, by mail, with a copy of the same Medical Device Correction letter to the firm's customers. The firm has requested their customers to throw away any adapter that is being recalled. Technical Support will be available for customer questions and technical questions and to ensure each unit is upgraded. Contact Spacelabs Healthcare at 425-657-7200 ext 5970 if you have questions.
