Reason for Recall
Vacuum Assisted Delivery System may have a loss of vacuum, or the cup will not release from the baby's head. A loss of vacuum may delay delivery and require the use of forceps and/or c-section for delivery. An inability to remove the cup from the head may delay delivery and/or prevent the user from applying forceps if necessary. This may result in serious injury or death to the baby.
