Manufacturer Narrative

The affected device was analyzed by the hospitals biomed in communication with the dräger technical support.The log file confirms that the device initiated multiple restarts on (b)(6) 2020 at 10:01 pm due to an internal deviation.The device was immediately switched to standby by the user at 10:02 pm.The analysis concluded that a faulty pcb pneumatic controller was the root cause for the issue.The device was repaired by replacing the affected pcb.The device reacted as specified for this malfunction by initiating a warmstart in an attempt to solve the issue.During a warmstart the screen is switched to dark and an emergency-breathing valve opens to allow for spontaneous breathing.This is accompanied by an audible alarm.After successfully performing the reboot (duration approx.8 seconds) the ventilation is continued with the latest parameters.The number of similar cases, related to the same root cause, is within the expected range of the respective risk assessment and thus accepted.
