Defibtech Announces a Recall of Lifeline and ReviveR Automated External Defibrillators
Defibtech, LLC, is recalling Lifeline AED® and ReviveR AEDTM (semi-automatic external defibrillators). This recall affects all Lifeline and ReviveR AEDs with software versions 2.002 and earlier. The self-test software for these devices may allow a self-test to clear a previously detected low battery condition. If this situation occurs, the operator may be unaware of the low battery, and the device may be unable to deliver a defibrillation shock, which could result in failure to resuscitate a patient.
The company has provided a maintenance procedure that can be used to verify functionality of the device until the software upgrade has been installed, allowing the device to remain in service. A copy of this maintenance procedure is being mailed to customers. This procedure, as well as instructions on determining the software version of a unit, can be found on the www.defibtech.com/fa2007 web page. For questions regarding this recall, please refer to the above referenced web page, contact your distributor or contact Defibtech at techsupport@defibtech.com, 1-877-453-4507 or 1-203-453-4507.
Defibtech will provide customers with a free software upgrade to address this issue for all affected AEDs. This software upgrade will be able to be installed in the field where the unit is located. The software upgrade is expected to be available within the next 10 weeks.
