Welcome to Pritzker | Ruohonen
PIC50 External Monitor/Defibrillator Recall
On July 7, 2006, the FDA announced the recall of 1,184 PIC50 External Monitor/Defibrillators manufactured in Buffalo Grove, Illinois between February 2002 and October of 2004 by MRL, Inc. a Welch Allyn Company. The recalled PIC50 monitor/defibrillators may display a DEFIB COMM ERROR, which may prevent or delay the delivery of therapy, which may fail to resuscitate the patient. This problem occurs because of an electrical defect.
MRL, Inc has received 18 complaints about the electrical defect in the PIC50 External Monitor/Defibrillator. In two instances, the “Defib Comm Error” delayed patient resuscitation. For more information see the FDA announcement of the PIC50 External Monitor/Defibrillator recall.
