Draeger, Inc. is recalling 753 Atlan A350 and Atlan A350XL anesthesia workstations because the devices may experience a failure of the piston ventilator or mechanical ventilation system. These workstations are used in clinical settings to provide anesthesia and mechanical ventilation for adults, children, and infants during surgery. The recall affects units that have either shown failures before use or suffered ventilation failure during use, which could prevent the device from delivering necessary breathing support to the patient.
A failure of the mechanical ventilation system while a patient is under anesthesia can lead to a sudden loss of respiratory support. This poses a critical risk of oxygen deprivation (hypoxia) and respiratory distress, which can result in serious injury or death.
Intended for use in anesthetizing adults, pediatrics, and neonates.
