Manufacturer Narrative
|
A philips field service engineer (fse) went onsite to evaluate the device and confirmed the monitor was configured for the asystole threshold of 4 seconds cardiac arrest.Because the threshold was not actually configured, the monitor only generated a yellow cardiac arrest alarm.The fse reported there was customer's misunderstanding of the monitor setting, and there was no actual problem.The cause of the reported problem was confirmed to be a customer's misunderstanding of the monitor settings.There was no actual problem.The device remains at customer site.
