Philips recalls IntelliVue MX800 patient monitors (product #865240) due to potential failure to alarm, risking missed critical health alerts. Affected units may need repair or replacement.
Potential issue where the IntelliVue monitors did not alarm.
Philips is recalling IntelliVue MX800 patient monitors that may not sound alarms when a patient's condition worsens. This could lead to missed critical health alerts and potential harm if the monitor fails to alert healthcare providers.
The monitors may fail to sound alarms during critical health events, meaning healthcare providers might not be alerted to a patient's deteriorating condition. This could delay life-saving interventions if the patient's condition worsens without timely detection.
Healthcare providers using the IntelliVue MX800 patient monitors are most at risk. Patients in critical care settings where timely alarms are essential could be affected.
Check for the product number 865240 on the monitor. The recall applies to all units sold with this specific product number.
Test if the monitor sounds alarms during simulated critical events to confirm it works.
