ZOLL recommended that customers alert their staff of the issue, that the electrodes should be kept away from a fluid environment, to use caution in handling the electrodes if they are subjected to a fluid environment and maintain safe defibrillation practice, and seek a replacement if available. Also customers should contact Zoll 1-800-348-9011 for product replacement. The firm plans to replace the affected lots free of charge.
