Reason for the Action Natus become aware of two complaints related to the Olympic Brainz Monitor where the electrode placement labels on the DATA ACQUISITION BOX (DAB) were on backwards.

This labelling error may lead to a use error where the electrodes are connected incorrectly, causing the left and right channels to be misaligned. As a result, the recorded data may be misinterpreted, potentially leading to a misdiagnosis of seizure location in neonates monitored with this device.
Instructions for Customers/Users Customers should check their Olympic Brainz Monitor stock and determine if their devices have the incorrect label orientation present.

If the product labelling is incorrect customers should immediately cease use of the affected product and quarantine until they receive the shipping instructions from Natus to return it.

A replacement device(s) will be made available to customers at no cost, upon completion of the completed Customer Reply Form contained in the customer letter.
