GE Healthcare Carestation 750 anesthesia systems recalled for potential unexpected shutdown during power loss

OTHERNationwide distribution

Check your GE Carestation 750 anesthesia system

GE Healthcare has recalled certain Carestation 750 anesthesia systems that may unexpectedly shut down if AC power is lost or unplugged. When this happens, the system will not automatically switch to battery backup and will reboot, which can temporarily disrupt ventilation and medication delivery. After rebooting, the system does not return to its previous settings.

  • If you operate a Carestation 750 A1, 750 A2, 750c A1, or 750c A2 system, contact GE Healthcare immediately
  • Do not rely solely on this system as your only anesthesia delivery method until you receive guidance from GE
  • Ensure continuous backup emergency power is in place at your facility
  • Check GE Healthcare's website or contact your device representative for repair or replacement instructions
Hazard

Potential unexpected shutdown of Carestation 600 and 700 Series Anesthesia Systems containing certain power management boards, if the AC mains power is unplugged or in the event of an AC mains power failure. Anesthesia systems only operate on battery power in a rare event that AC mains power is lost and there is no continuous backup emergency power. If AC power is interrupted, the system will not automatically switch over to the battery supply mode and will reboot. If this issue occurs, a temporary disruption of mechanical ventilation, manual ventilation, and volatile agent delivery may occur. Following the reboot, the system will not return to the previous ventilation settings.
