Philips Recalling 5,400 FR2+ Automated External Defibrillators

Philips is recalling some 5,400 defibrillators from their professional line, the FR2+ due to a problem with a memory chip that is experiencing a high rate of failure and will lead to the defibrillator unit being inoperable. The units detected the problems during the self-test routines and not during acutal emergency usage.

The defibrillator recall affects models M3860A and M3861A distributed by Philips as well as models M3840A and M3841A distributed by Laerdal Medical. All the recalled defibrillators were manufactured between May 2007 and Janry 2008.

This could be a serious problem for those that live in humid states or where the units have been deployed where humidity might be high. It would be best to contact Physio-Control to find out more information about your particular unit or if you need to have your unit replaced.
