Covidien HysteroLux Fluid Management System Control Unit, REF: 72205000

When the display of inflow volume to the uterus reaches 32450 ml, the fluid management system control unit display will freeze because the internal software calculation threshold is reached. The outflow measurement will continue, and so the deficit accumulated up to this point will start counting backwards to 0 ml. There is a risk of distention fluid reaching the soft tissue circulatory system.

On 06/18/21 a recall notice was emailed to their one distributor customer. This customer was informed that a new software version was created that would alert the user when an inflow volume of 28.000 ml is reached. This is designed to prepare the user for manual determination of the deficit. The recalling firm recommends updating the units with the new software version during the next preventive maintenance at the recalling firm's U.S. location with the following contacts to coordinate shipment: [email protected], 1-407-438-8810; [email protected], 1-407-472-1509
