Hazard
Any single affected ventilator should only be used for the 10- year labelled service life, but if longer ventilatory support is required using more than one ventilator over time, the use of these devices for more than 14 years of cumulative duration may pose harm to health due to a volatile organic compound (VOC), 2-propanol, 1,3-dichloro released from some components in the ventilator gas pathway
