Mindray recalls Sevoflurane E_Vap Quik-Fil used with A9 Anesthesia System due to potential overdose risk from inaccurate anesthetic delivery. Patients may experience drowsiness or neurological issues if anesthetic concentration is too high.
V90 electronic vaporizer anesthetic agent output may be higher than the set amount due to a component within the vaporizer causing an incomplete seal in some cases. Should this issue occur, the A9 Anesthesia System will generate alarms associated with abnormal vaporizer output. If the anesthetic concentration is too high, the patient can inhale too much anesthetic agent; the patient may suffer from symptoms such as vertigo and drowsiness after the operation. In severe cases, the patient may suffer from neurological sequelae such as hypomnesia and inattention
