| Reason for the Action |
Cardinal Health Australia is warning users of the potential safety risks when the Kendall SCD 700 Sequential Compression System is used with non-original (non-OEM) power cords.
The risk of using a non-OEM power cord includes electrical shock and fire, as there are reports of electrical problems such as sparking and arcing, which have occurred during operations.
Non-OEM power cords may lack proper electrical compatibility, safety certifications, and mechanical fit, increasing the risk of device failure. Their use may often be unnoticed by clinical staff. |
