Reported risk: Armstrong Medical is aware of reports indicating that a small number of devices are associated with high and unexpected resistance to gas flow during clinical use. Such resistance could impact or prevent adequate ventilation of an anesthetized patient, should a defective device go into clinical use. Assessment of available data and results from product testing suggest that these devices account for 0.25% of devices manufactured from June 2020 until 11th June 2021.
