Action

On March 28, 2017, US consignees were sent an Urgent Medical Recall letter and Customer Reply and Order card. Delta family monitors running software version 10.0 in facilities that also have at least one Scio module will be downgraded to software version VF9.1 as a temporary solution Free of Charge. Draeger Medical Systems, Inc. is developing a new software version to resolve the issue (VF10.1).

For all other countries, the responsible local Draeger Sales and Service will mail the letter and card.
