What this means for you
Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: The source explicitly lists 'patient/clinician burns' as a possible adverse clinical impact, which aligns with the rubric criterion for 'significant injury' reports, warranting a score of 4.
Plain-English summary
Pacific Medical Group Inc. is recalling 2,170 Toco+ transducers with ECG/IUP capability (wired) that may have been serviced with specific non-OEM equivalent components. The affected units were serviced between September 2, 2015, and April 2, 2019, and were distributed worldwide, including in the United States and various international locations.
The recall is due to the use of non-OEM components that have not been appropriately verified or validated. This defect may result in the inability to accurately detect and measure fetal heart rate, maternal peripheral oxygen saturation, uterine activity, temperature, or maternal blood pressure. Additionally, the defect may cause a lack of electrocardiography tracing, patient or clinician burns, and delays in detecting maternal or fetal distress.
Healthcare facilities and consumers should stop using the affected transducers immediately. Pacific Medical Group Inc. is the recalling firm and is responsible for managing the recall process for these devices.
