Product

Phasitron5 Breathing Circuit (P5-10, P5-HC, P5-UC-10). component of Intrapulmonary Percussive Ventilation, used to provide airway clearance therapy

Why was it recalled?

As a result of product complaints, breathing circuits are experiencing discolored fluid which are formed when therapy was being given with specific medication through the nebulizer cup. Discoloration is caused by a reaction between medicated mist and an inadvertent/unapproved addition of a nickel coating on the spring component.
