Datex-Ohmeda recalls Amingo ventilators with potential gas connection error causing patient breathing issues. All units with Auxiliary Common Gas Outlet (ACGO) option affected.
Potential issue that may arise if the limb of a patient breathing circuit is mistakenly connected to the Auxiliary Common Gas Outlet (ACGO) port.
Datex-Ohmeda is recalling Amingo ventilators that could cause breathing problems if a patient's limb circuit is incorrectly connected to the Auxiliary Common Gas Outlet (ACGO) port. This risk exists in all units with the ACGO option, which are sold only in the U.S. and Canada.
