Product removal due to possible blocking or impairment of the CARDIOHELP Emergency Drive. This issue can lead to the patient being exposed to inappropriate low blood flow. Potential associated harms are ischemia and hypoxia.
Maquet is recalling specific models of the Cardiohelp Emergency Drive blood oxygenation system because they might block blood flow, risking low oxygen levels and potential tissue damage in patients. This recall affects medical devices used in emergency care settings.
The device may block blood flow during operation, leading to inadequate oxygen delivery to the patient. This can cause tissue damage (ischemia) and oxygen deprivation (hypoxia) if the blockage is not resolved.
