Xhibit Telemetry Receiver software versions may cause unsolicited system shutdowns
Telemetry receivers with affected software versions may unexpectedly shut down for 1-1.5 minutes, temporarily disabling patient monitoring. This could delay clinical response if a patient event occurs during the outage.
What this means for you
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: This FDA Class II medical device recall involves a software defect that temporarily disables patient monitoring capability. While no illnesses or injuries have been reported, the device failure presents a risk-of-harm scenario where clinical events could occur undetected during the 1-1.5 minute outages.
Plain-English summary
Spacelabs Healthcare is recalling Xhibit Telemetry Receiver systems (Model 96280) with software versions 1.4.0 and 1.4.1, a medical device intended to provide patient data to monitoring systems.
The affected software versions may cause the receiver to unexpectedly shut down and restart, displaying 'Offline' during these events. Each shutdown and restart lasts approximately 1 to 1.5 minutes and results in temporary loss of monitoring capability. If a patient experiences a clinical event during this downtime, staff may not detect it until the system restarts, potentially delaying necessary clinical intervention.
Approximately 434 units have been distributed across the United States, Canada, Taiwan, Czech Republic, France, Greece, Italy, Kuwait, Philippines, and Poland. Healthcare facilities with affected devices should contact Spacelabs Healthcare for information on available software updates or mitigation guidance.
