In some cases, this issue may result in either one of the following scenarios: 1. The ventilator ceases to operate, activating both visual and audible alarms. 2. The ventilator ceases to operate and does not activate either a visual or audible alarm causing a "silent shutdown". Recall start date: Mar 17, 2022
