GE Healthcare Recalls Giraffe Incubators with Servo Oxygen Module

GE Healthcare is recalling Giraffe Incubators with Servo Oxygen modules because they may deliver different oxygen levels than displayed.

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: The recall is classified as FDA Class II. The hazard involves a medical device potentially delivering incorrect oxygen levels, which is a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported in the source text.

Plain-English summary

GE Healthcare, LLC is recalling Giraffe Incubators with installed Servo Oxygen modules. The recall involves 5,883 units distributed worldwide, including the United States and numerous international locations. The affected devices are identified by specific serial numbers and part kit codes.

The recall is due to a potential for the devices to deliver a different environmental oxygen level than what is displayed by the device. This discrepancy could occur if the optional Servo Oxygen Module is installed.

Healthcare facilities should contact GE Healthcare for instructions on how to address the issue. The source text does not specify a consumer action for general public, as these are medical devices used in clinical settings.
