Hazard
14 recalls in our database tag this hazard, drawn from FDA, USDA FSIS, CPSC, and NHTSA source notices.
Of the 14 hypoxia risk recalls we have scored against our rubric, 0 (0%) are Critical — deaths or serious injuries reported, or the agency’s own highest classification — and 6 (43%) are Severe.
Hazard tags are short, machine-readable labels we attach to every recall to make cross-cutting queries possible — “all hypoxia risk recalls regardless of agency”, “all listeria recalls in California”, “all airbag recalls in 2025”. The tags are extracted from each recall’s source text during the LLM rewrite step and validated against a fixed schema.
A recall can carry multiple tags — a Listeria recall might also be tagged ready-to-eat and undeclared-allergen. Use the full-text search if you want to combine hazard tags with brand or category filters.
Medline is recalling 141,971 of its 14 Fr Suction Catheter Kits because an 8 Fr catheter may have been packed in place of the required 14 Fr catheter.
Medline is recalling 130 Adult Intubation Trays because an 8 Fr suction catheter may have been packed in place of the required 14 Fr catheter.
Fisher & Paykel is recalling 51,144 Airvo 2 and myAirvo 2 humidifiers because an unintentional power disconnection may sound an audible alert for less than 120 seconds.
Vyaire Medical is recalling the AirLife Infant Heated Wire Circuit (model AH265) because adapters may disconnect during setup or use, potentially interrupting ventilation to newborns. Disconnection can cause hypoxia, hypercapnia, and organ failure.
Vyaire Medical is recalling the AirLife Infant Heated Wire Circuit (Model AH165) because adapters may disconnect during setup or use, interrupting ventilation to infants and potentially causing severe complications.
Microstream intubated CO2 sampling lines may be difficult or impossible to disconnect from endotracheal tubes. This could delay necessary procedures and cause unintended extubation, potentially leading to respiratory failure.
Certain Philips Tempus Pro Patient Monitors may display an error message when laryngoscopes are disconnected, requiring a 60-100 second restart that prevents vital sign monitoring and airway visualization during intubation. This may lead to treatment delays or hypoxia.
Getinge Flow-i Anesthesia Systems models C20, C30, and C40 are being recalled due to a software bug that can prevent proper ventilation, potentially leading to hypoxia in patients.
The Getinge Flow-c Anesthesia System contains a software bug that can prevent pressure buildup and ventilation delivery. Under certain conditions, oxygen delivery may decrease, which may lead to hypoventilation and hypoxia.
OXY-1 System consoles used during cardiac support procedures may experience power interruptions that disrupt patient therapy, potentially causing prolonged oxygen deprivation.
Draeger Medical recalls 26 Fabius MRI Anesthesia Machines due to incorrectly routed internal oxygen hoses. The misrouting can cause oxygen flow to deviate from set levels, risking inadequate patient oxygenation.
Draegar Medical Systems is recalling Delta XL patient monitors because the low oxygen alarm may fail to sound when oxygen levels drop below the limit.
Draegar Medical Systems is recalling Kappa and Scio patient monitors because a low oxygen alarm may fail to sound when oxygen levels drop below the set limit.
Draeger Medical Systems is recalling Delta patient monitors used with Scio gas modules because the low oxygen alarm may fail to sound when oxygen levels drop below the set limit.
