Manufacturer Reason for Recall |
HealthTronics has initiated this recall of these products because there have been instances where the temperature probes (aka TempProbes) in the kit may be mislabeled. In some instances, the label near the prove does not match the label at the connector. If the labeling error went undetected, the TempProbes would not be monitoring temperature in the area believed to be under surveillance.
