  1. May 5, 2023Completed

    Vyaire Medical identified two patient safety risks during the use of the bellavista 1000 and bellavista 1000e: 1. Under certain conditions of use, the touchscreen may become unresponsive and the device application stops responding (APP Hang). When this occurs, if the user continues to interact with the touchscreen, a message will appear that states DeviceSoftware.Application is not responding or a decommission screen will appear on the user interface. The ventilator will issue both an audible and visual alarm. Ventilation continues without interruption with the settings applied prior to the APP Hang error. 2. The potential for a use error has been identified if the operator applies the proposed settings without confirming the settings are suitable for the patient.
