Hazard

A failure of a specific component may prevent the ventilators from operating on AC power or transitioning back to AC power when operating on battery. Additionally, if a battery is not present or is depleted the ventilators will not operate. This failure will cause the loss of ventilator support, which may result in hypercarbia or hypoxemia.
