Plain-English summary
Ventec Life Systems, Inc. is recalling the VOCSN V+Pro ventilator package (REF: PRT-01198-000) and VOCSN V+Pro unit (REF: PRT-01185-000). The respiratory system is intended to provide continuous or intermittent ventilator support.
The devices may not have been fully evaluated under all intended high-pressure conditions during production testing.
