Reason/Issue |
Smiths Medical has become aware of an issue with a limited number of Warming Sets with the potential for leakage form the injection port at the top of the Warming Set. If fluid leaks at the injection port, the leak is readily detectable by the clinician who would stop using the Warming Set and obtain a replacement. This could present a minor delay in therapy while a replacement Warming Set is obtained. |
