Manufacturer Reason for Recall |
Erroneously high FeNO levels which may contribute to premature discontinuation of effective asthma treatment and persistent underlying disease. Two issues affecting the FeNO readings: 1) Drift in the calibration gases and 2) Software error. Each of these issues can cause FeNO scores/results to be erroneously high.

Action |
Between 02/21-26/2021, the firm contacted its customers via email/phone and Zoom to inform them that two calibration errors were noted for the Asthma Monitor regarding, 1) drift in calibration gases and 2) a software error that may cause a high reading indicating that a therapeutic action should be taken. This may result in prescription of unneeded medication to the patient. On 02/26/2021, the firm sent a follow-up "Urgent - Medical Device Recall" Notification further instructing the customers to:
1. Discontinue use of the device. Make all personnel who use it aware of this recall.
2. Contact Recalling Firm or their distributor. Contact at +1-888-609-4839 or customerservice.cdx@caireinc.com. The Recalling Firm will arrange for shipment of the device back to the factory for a software update and re-calibration. If the customer purchased the affected products from a distributor, they should contact them to arrange shipment.
3. Distributors: Please cease distribution of the device and contact the Recalling Firm to arrange for return of their existing inventory for a software update and re-calibration, or device replacement. Distributors should immediately forward the Recall Notification to all affected customers and request that they comply with the recall process.
