H10: per good faith effort response, it was confirmed the device was being used to treat the patient¿s low oxygen levels.The patient was also connected to an oxygen source, although the requested prescribed o2 levels and ventilatory status of the patient were not provided.The customer also did not provide the final outcome of the patient; however, they did report that a cause for the abnormal tidal volume was determined and ¿after the gas delivery system was replaced by the equipment department, the equipment was restored to normal use.¿ the customer confirmed there were ¿no injuries,¿ therefore the reported harm does not qualify as a serious injury.The engineering department replaced the gas delivery system (gds) to resolve the reported issue.The device passed required performance verification tests per philips standards and was returned to service.The investigation concludes that no further action is required at this time.If additional information is received the complaint file will be reopened.No further information was able to be obtained.
