Device evaluation summary: medtronic conducted an investigation based upon all information received.It was reported that during preventative maintenance, this 840 ventilator generated a visual and sound alarm with a background checks gui (graphical user interface) diagnostic code.It was additionally reported that continuous audible alarm, ¿technical alarm¿, visual message ¿vent inop¿, and post bdu (power on self test, breath delivery unit) diagnostic code were generated.The device was available for evaluation.The medtronic field service engineer (fse) evaluated the ventilator and replaced the breath delivery unit central processing unit printed circuit board (bd cpu pcb) and analog interface (ai) printed circuit board assembly (pcba).The ventilator passed all testing per manufacturer specification at the time of service.The bd cpu pcb was returned to medtronic but was unable to be tested as this was an obsolete part.The analog interface printed circuit board (ai pcb) was returned for further analysis: a visual inspection was carried out on the returned component, no anomalies were observed.The component was attached to the failure investigation test ventilator for analysis and powered up but failed the flow sensor cross check test.The fault was isolated to component reference designator u31.The likely cause of the reported event was isolated to the analog interface printed circuit board (ai pcb).The manufacturing records for each device are thoroughly reviewed prior to release to ensure that it has met all medtronic quality specifications.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
