Action |
On June 2, 2021, Philips issued an Urgent Medical Device Correction notice to customers via letter and email notifying them an intermittent software error has been detected as a part of an internal production control activity. The error can occur immediately after unplugging the Video Laryngoscope from the USB port.
If the customer identifies affected products in use or in inventory: Clinical User Actions:
- Users of Tempus Pro who are not using a Video Laryngoscope do not need to take any further actions.
- When a Video Laryngoscope is required to be used, the following actions are recommended to reduce the probability of a software reboot during the intervention;
- An alternative Video Laryngoscope device may be used to perform any critical interventions such as intubation.
- If you are using the Tempus Pro and need to use the Video Laryngoscope on a patient, we recommend completion of any critical interventions before unplugging the Video Laryngoscope from the USB port.
- Should the Video Laryngoscope image become frozen on the screen, re-start (turn off and turn back on) the Tempus Pro device.
Customer Actions:
- Notify all users of the potential risk of loss of monitoring when unplugging the Video Laryngoscope from the Tempus Pro, requiring the device to be restarted.
