Reason

A component issue may cause the AED to abort a shock delivery or reset unexpectedly, which may cause an affected device to fail to delivery shock, and/or to fail to deliver shock in range.

Action

The firm contacted affected customers via email and mailed letter on April 27, 2020. Distributors were asked to forward letters to end users. Customers were informed that affected products may abort a shock delivery or reset unexpectedly. Customers were asked to return all affected products for screening. Actions to be taken by the Customer/User: 1. If you have additional AEDs on hand , please quarantine and return any affected units as identified in the Attachment for screening or replacement. Do not include the pads and battery packs when you return your unit. 2. If no other AEDs are available, please continue using the device with caution until a loaner or replacement is provided. 3. Ensure that all users of the AED are informed of the product issue. Defibtech will provide support for handling all aspects of the return of identified units for screening.
