Why these products were recalled

Three separate and unrelated problems attributed to the software used in the Evita V600, Evita V800, Babylog VN600 and Babylog VN800: 1. Restart of ventilation unit. 2. Incorrect FiO2 high and FiO2 low alarms. 3. SmartCare/PS (SC/PS) suspends weaning

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
