MalfunctionSep 30, 2026Circuit Failure; Electrical /Electronic Property Problem
A BiPAP A40 Pro device was returned to a third-party service center for evaluation. During evaluation of the device, a ¿ventilator inoperative¿ condition/error code 86 related to failure of the outlet pressure sensor was identified. There was no reported harm or injury.During further evaluation at the third-party service center, the recommended repair was replacement of the PCA board. However, the customer requested that the device be scrapped, and the device was not repaired.The evaluation of the device data also identified error codes unrelated to the reportable malfunction. These error codes are consistent with normal device operation and expected use conditions and are not considered reportable under medical device reporting requirements. No evidence was identified to suggest that these error codes contributed to or caused the reported event.Due to a high internal O2 error E-228, PCA is faulty. E-228 is applicable for FCO00000002. This issue has been identified under the FSN 2023-CC-SRC-042. No errors applicable for FCO00000001. Device will be scrapped as per customer request. Based on the available information, there is not enough evidence to indicate this issue is reportable

MAUDE report 50951675 ↗MalfunctionSep 29, 2026Electrical /Electronic Property Problem
The manufacturer received information alleging a ventilator inoperative error code was found on a BiPAP 40 Pro device. The device was not in use on a patient at the time of the occurrence. During the evaluation of the device at third-party service center, the third-party service technician observed the error code, the power fail voltage is outside its valid range of 4.775 to 5.675 for at least ten seconds, in the device's error log. The third-party service technician further evaluated but was not able to determine the cause of the issue for this device. The root cause is not confirmed at this time. The device was scrapped per the customer request. A final report is being submitted. If new information becomes available following the completion of the device repair that changes the outcome of the investigation and associated medical device reporting a supplemental report will be completed.Additionally, during the service of the device, the system printed circuit assembly needs replaced for another error code, error high internal O2, that was observed on the device's error log. This was unrelated to the reportable malfunction/issue.

MAUDE report 50934587 ↗MalfunctionSep 24, 2026Circuit Failure; Electrical /Electronic Property Problem
The manufacturer received information alleging that a ventilator inoperative error code was identified in the event log of a BiPAP A40 Pro device in France during evaluation. This issue has been identified under FSN 2023-CC-SRC-039 due to interruptions and/or loss of therapy associated with a Ventilation Inoperative Alarm. No patient harm or serious injury was reported in association with this notification. During evaluation of the BiPAP A40 Pro device at a third-party service center, a ventilator inoperative error was confirmed in the event log. The error indicates that the difference between the blower pressure sensor reading and the outlet pressure sensor reading was 10 cmH2O or greater for 5 seconds. The technician identified a faulty Printed Circuit Assembly (PCA) as the root cause of the error. No repair was performed. The device will be scrapped at the customer's request. Device logs were not available; therefore, the date of the most recent error codes occurrence could not be determined. At this time, the reported error code event date is based solely on the customer's information received and has not been confirmed through device evaluation.
