Manufacturer Reason for Recall | A problem has been detected in the Philips IntelliVue MX4O that, if it were to occur, could affect the
performance of the equipment. The volume of the MX4O speaker in these devices may be diminished or not audible above 4,500 feet when operating in Monitor Mode. These devices may
intermittently exhibit Speaker Malfunct INOP messages after the Power On
Self-Test.
The issue is only apparent when the device is being used in Monitor Mode at an
altitude of greater than 4,500 feet. |
FDA Determined Cause 2 | Vendor change control |
Action | On November 9, 2018, the firm notified customers of the issue via Customer Information Letters. The letter discussed the product problem.
Customers are asked to confirm speaker behavior. It is recommended that the clinical user reboot the MX40 prior to entering
Monitoring Mode to confirm proper operation of the speaker. Customers are also asked to complete the attached Reply Card and return to Philips as soon as possible.
The firm will replace affected devices used at above 4,500 feet (1,372 meters).
