Action
On February 27, 2008 the firm sent a URGENT MEDICAL DEVICE NOTIFICATION letter to consignees advising of the issue. The letter states the firm is performing accelerated function testing and that a follow up notification will be sent if the firm's final test results indicate further action is necessary. The letter recommends consignees "Continue to use your LIFEPAK 1000 defibrillator/monitor Set your device to Auto-Analyze Contact Physio-Control immediately if your display begins to dim or goes blank. What to do if the display goes blank while in use: 1. Continue to use the device to treat the patient. (voice prompts and tones function normally). 2. If the device is not set to Auto-Analyze use the lower right soft key to select Analyze from the display screen... 3. All other buttons are labeled outside the display screen."
