ActionOn 4/15/2025, correction notices were mailed to customers and distributors informing them of the following: I) The User/Operator Manual provides precautions and warnings on maintaining appropriate power or battery supply, which may reduce the risk of occurrence of an "MPM Application" software error message: -Warning (In Chapter 2, Getting started): Ensure the latches on both sides of the battery are fully engaged prior to using the Tempus - an incorrectly fitted battery could result in the tempus losing power during use. -Note: Before removing the battery, you must switch off the Tempus Pro by pressing the power button. Do not remove the battery when the Tempus is on (unless there is a power supply attached to the device). II) If you have confirmed that your Tempus Pro has the standard (Louvain) algorithm, continue to follow the User/Operator Manual, which warns users to not make evaluations based solely on interpretation statements from the algorithm. -Warning (In Chapter 6, Taking medical readings): ECG interpretation performed by software is not a substitute for review and evaluation of ECG recordings by a qualified clinician. Keep a copy of this notice with your device until you receive the correction. Complete and return the response form via email to https://philips.efmfeedback.com/se/705E3ED80DE11FAF In addition, distributors were asked to do the following: - Modify the Response Form to substitute your firm's email and fax information. - Send a copy of this Urgent Medical Device Correction (with modified response form) to each customer to whom you distributed the affected product. Philips has developed a software update to resolve these issues that is expected to be available Q3 2025 via FCO86700012. If you need any further information or support concerning this issue, please contact the firm at (800) 722-9377 or email RDT.Recall.Response@Philips.com
