Still to verify: match the label on your item with the full official notice, including any exclusions, tables and photos. Some identifiers appear only on the agency website and are absent from this data feed. A missing field does not mean all versions are affected.

If your lot or date falls outside a stated range, this notice has not established that your item is affected. This is not a finding about other recalls or product safety.

2. Agency hazard and consumer action

FDA reports: Retrospective submission for following issues identified: 1. Alarm failures, power-path faults, electrical-short risks, and inaccurate motor-current sensing were identified in certain AIC consoles. 2. There is improper alignment between the purge cassette and the motor drive in the AIC. This can result in a piston block event and lead to the inability to complete priming of the purge system, requiring the user to switch to backup AIC console.

No consumer remedy instructions are supplied in this record. Check the official notice and listed company contact for the agency’s current instructions.

Class I: most serious — reasonable probability of serious health consequences or death.
