OTHERNationwide distributionMedical devices

What this means

Laborie Medical Technologies' Solar GI System water perfusion devices may accumulate moisture inside tubing, filters, and pressure sensors during extended clinical use. This moisture buildup can affect how the system measures airflow and pressure, potentially impacting test results.

  • If you operate or maintain one of these systems, contact Laborie Medical Technologies for guidance on moisture removal procedures
  • Do not use the system for extended studies until you receive instructions on proper maintenance
The agency's original wording
Hazard

Under extended clinical use conditions (e.g., long duration studies), moisture generated within the pneumatic circuit may accumulate inside the system's internal tubing or at the hydrophobic filter and waterproof pressure sensors. Accumulated moisture may affect airflow or pressure measurement performance if not properly removed.
