On July 26, 2021, Phillips issued an "Urgent Medical Device Removal" notification to affected consignees.

While waiting to receive the replacement, customers should keep the Infant/Child SMART Pads Cartridge inside the outer pouch until the cartridge is replaced, or until it is needed for therapy. The reason is because the pouch correctly identifies the cartridge as intended for infant/child patients. (Figure 7). 3.
