“Covidien Medtronic Invos Sensor Cable Recall: Error Codes or Non-Functioning.” GovInfoNow, updated August 17, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/56350-covidien-medtronic-invos-sensor-cable-recall-error-codes-or-non. Based on FDA recall #Z-1731-2024 (https://api.fda.gov/device/enforcement.json?search=recall_number:%22Z-1731-2024%22&limit=1).

Why it’s dangerous

The cables have manufacturing defects in the connectors that can cause error codes or the channel to stop working. This means the monitor might not properly track an infant's vital signs, potentially leading to missed health issues.

Who’s affected

Parents or caregivers using Medtronic Invos monitors with the recalled sensor cables. Infants being monitored with these devices are at risk if the cable fails.
