Baxter Healthcare Corporation is recalling one unit of the Welch Allyn CP150 Electrocardiograph with Spirometry Option (Product Code CP150A-1ENB) because a critical part called an Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) absorber was not installed during manufacturing. This device is used by doctors to check and monitor heart function. Without this component, the device may fail to work correctly or could interfere with other nearby medical equipment, potentially leading to incorrect diagnoses or treatment delays. This recall affects only a single unit with serial number 100013892024, which was distributed in Illinois.
The missing EMI absorber can lead to electronic interference that causes the device to malfunction or stop working. It may also leak electromagnetic signals that interfere with the performance of other life-saving medical devices located in the same room.
