Why it was recalled

Stop using this product now

Some devices may be associated with high and unexpected resistance to gas flow during clinical use, impacting or preventing adequate ventilation of an anaesthetised patient, which could cause a delay in treatment. Not all defective canisters will be identified by the pre-use test.

Using this product could cause serious injury, illness or death — stop using it now.
