Philips recalls EarlyVue VS30 Vitals Monitors with specific serial numbers due to a software issue that may prevent alarms when respiration rates are outside safe limits. Affected units should be checked for serial numbers listed.
A software issue prevents the monitor from alarming when the high/low acoustic respiration rate (RRa) limits are violated.
Philips is recalling EarlyVue VS30 Vitals Monitors that have a software problem which might stop the device from sounding alarms if breathing becomes too fast or too slow. This could lead to missing critical health changes and requires immediate attention.
The monitor's software fails to alert users when their breathing rate goes too high or too low. This could mean critical health changes go unnoticed, potentially leading to serious health issues if the device is used for monitoring.
People using the EarlyVue VS30 Vitals Monitor for home health monitoring are affected. Those with breathing conditions or who rely on the device for critical health tracking are at higher risk.
Check the serial numbers on your EarlyVue VS30 Vitals Monitor. Affected units have serial numbers listed in the recall: DE72401360, DE72401393, DE72400231, DE72400232, DE72400235, DE72400254, DE72400237, DE72400238, DE72400239, DE72409250, DE72409240, DE72409249.
Look for the serial numbers listed in the recall: DE72401360, DE72401393, DE72400231, DE72400232, DE72400235, DE72400254, DE72400237, DE72400238, DE72400239, DE72409250, DE72409240, DE72409249.
The software issue prevents the monitor from alarming when the high/low acoustic respiration rate (RRa) limits are violated, which could lead to missing critical health changes.
Check the serial numbers on your monitor. If it matches the list, contact Philips for further instructions.
The recall record does not mention a remedy or fix, so no action is required beyond checking the serial numbers.
