Ge healthcare has recently become aware of a potential safety issue wherein the oxygen and air wall or tank inlet fittings in the back panel, were reversed during assembly. as a result, this may potentially have reversed air/oxygen gas concentrations; for example, a setting of 100% oxygen could have an output of 21% oxygen, and vice versa, the settings of the blender knob will no longer be accurate in the affected units.There is a risk of over delivery or under delivery of oxygen which may result in hyperoxia or hypoxia.

GE Healthcare is advising users to perform a check of blender accuracy as per the Service Manual to verify O2 concentration set at 21% is within 16-26% and the concentration at 100% setting is within 95-105%. GE is providing a Pass/Fail form to be used for these checks. - If the unit is not within these settings, discontinue use and send completed Pass/Fail form to GE in order to get the unit repaired. - If the unit within these settings, continue using the device.
