Manufacturer Narrative

Ge healthcares (gehc) investigation has been completed.The gehc's field engineer completed a review of the system logs and checkout of the device.The root cause of the alleged loss of ventilation and intermittent ventilation failures after intubation cannot be determined, though it is possible that improper placement of the endotracheal tube, end user customer skipping the checkout procedure, or an inconsistent connection or seating of components between the canister and easy change module due to worn/dirty components contributed to insufficient ventilation.Therefore, the root cause cannot be determined.
