Action
Accutron sent an Urgent Advisory Notice letter dated April 6, 2012 to all their customers who purchased the Ultra PC% Cabinet Mount Flowmeter. The letter informed the customers of the problem identified and actions to be taken. Customers were instructed to discontinue use or to continue use of the device only with extreme care until a replacement can be installed. Extreme care includes the use of the titration method for nitrous oxide administration coupled with close monitoring of both the patient and the actual gas flow through the flowtubes.
