Plain-English summary
Philips Electronics North America Corporation is recalling 50,495 IntelliVue Patient Monitors. The recall is due to a defect where, if the monitors have been powered on continuously for several months, the displayed waveforms may contain outdated data. This failure means the monitors may not accurately reflect the patient's current physiological condition.
The affected monitors are indicated for use by health care professionals to monitor and record physiological parameters for adults, pediatrics, and neonates in a hospital environment. The recall covers units distributed worldwide, including US nationwide distribution. Specific serial numbers for US, VA, and DOD consignees are listed in the recall documentation, while other serial numbers are referenced in a customer list.
Health care facilities should check their inventory against the provided serial number lists. If a monitor is affected, it should be removed from service to prevent reliance on inaccurate patient data. Philips is the recalling firm responsible for this action.
