All affected power supplies will be updated; this will be accomplished in two phases. Devices at a higher risk will be updated first in phase 1. The remaining lower risk devices will be updated afterward in Phase 2. Customers are advised to keep the defibrillators in service, and to follow recommended daily Operator Checklist steps, while service updates are scheduled.
