Recall details

Recalling firm
Remote Diagnostic Technologies Ltd.
Reason for recall
During internal testing, Regulatory Compliance issues were identified regarding the Monitor and Power Supplies for fluid ingress and basic safety issues.
Action taken
On 02/17/2023, the firm sent an "URGENT Medical Device Correction" Letter via priority mail to customers informing them that during internal testing, Regulatory Compliance issues regarding Fluid Ingress and Basic Safety issues were identified with the Tempus Pro Monitor, AC Mains Power Supply, and the Vehicle Adaptor. Customers are instructed to: " As there is currently no indication that any of the issues have resulted in a degradation in product performance, Philips advises that the Tempus Pro devices should remain in service. " Continue to follow the User/Operator Manual, including: o Take care to ensure that water or liquids are not spilt over the device or into its ventilation holes in the side corners. o Check connector covers, particularly the capnometer door cover, to ensure they close and latch acceptably. " Post this Urgent Medical Device Correction letter on or near your Tempus Pro device. " Complete and return the Urgent Medical Device Correction response form included, no later than 30 days from receipt. Philips will be providing a new and compliant AC Mains Power Supply to all affected customers. A new and compliant Vehicle Adaptor will also be provided to affected customers with devices that include that option. Philips anticipates providing this solution to customers in the second half of 2023. For questions or further information, contact the local Philips Representative, or Philip at (800)263-3342.
