Packaging of infant child reduced energy electrodes was not properly sealed.
Physio-Control is recalling Infant Child Starter Kits with part number 3202784-009 that contain infant/child reduced energy defibrillation electrodes. The recall is due to packaging not being properly sealed, which could lead to contamination of the electrodes.
The packaging was not properly sealed, which could allow contaminants to enter the electrodes. This poses a risk of contamination but does not involve immediate danger like injury or death in normal use.
Healthcare professionals and emergency responders who use these kits with LIFEPAK 1000, LIFEPAK 500, or LIFEPAK CR Plus/EXPRESS defibrillators. Those most at risk are users who have the kits and may have been exposed to the unsealed packaging.

Inspect the packaging for proper sealing; if unsealed, do not use the electrodes.
The part number is 3202784-009.
These kits were sold from August 2017 through October 2019.
