Why it was recalled

The impacted tape was manufactured with incorrect information on the tape. Incorrect values are printed in the Red zone, Orange zone, and Grey zone. Using the incorrect values in the Red zone could lead to shocking a patient with an excessive dose of joules, causing significant harm including burns, heart damage, and cardiac arrest. Incorrect values in the Orange zone could lead to overdosing the patient with sodium bicarbonate and cause metabolic alkalosis, electrolyte imbalances, tissue damage, and worsen respiratory status. Incorrect information in the Grey may lead to underdosing the patient with sodium bicarbonate and may cause reduced myocardial contractility, decreased response to vasopressors, and increased risk of dysrhythmia.

FDA root cause category: Process control
