Recall Action Level Hospital
Recall Action Classification Class II
Recall Action Commencement Date 26/03/2018
Responsible Entity Draeger Australia Pty Ltd
Reason/Issue Drager has determined that when the Infinity M540 Patient Monitor with software versions VG4.1 and below is used in combination with the Infinity MCable Mainstream C02 (M11.1) revision 16 sensor, the Infinity M540 Patient Monitor will reboot if the sensor enters a reduced accuracy mode. Should the Infinity M540 Patient Monitor reboot 3 times within a 10 minute period or less, the Infinity M540 Patient Monitor will go into a fail-state, resulting in a resetting to factory defaults, losing patient settings and stored patient data.

This issue only occurs with Infinity cable revision 16. There have been no injuries reported as a result of this issue.
Recall Action Product Defect Correction
Recall Action Instructions Drager is advising users to discontinue use the Infinity CO2 sensor, revision 16. Drager will be replacing all revision 16 cables with an earlier revision as an interim correction.
A software update will be implemented as a long term correction.

This action has been closed out on the 29/11/2018.
