According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)

Reason for Recall

As stated by FDA

GE HealthCare has become aware of the potential for loss of monitoring on CARESCAPE Canvas 1000, CARESCAPE Canvas Smart Display, and certain versions of CARESCAPE B850 and CARESCAPE B650 monitors if, following the replacement of the CPU timekeeper battery, a mains power loss occurs during active monitoring. In the unlikely event that this occurs, it can result in the displays or monitors not turning on, after the mains power is restored. This can result in a delay in recognizing changes in patient condition until a replacement monitor is connected.

Recommended Action

Per FDA guidance

GE HealthCare issued an URGENT MEDICAL DEVICE CORRECTION notice to its consignees on 04/05/2024 via *****. The notice explained the problem with the device, potential risk, and requested the following actions to be taken by Customer/User: 1. You can continue to use your monitor if the CPU timekeeper battery has not been replaced. If the monitor has had a CPU timekeeper battery replaced or if you are unsure whether the CPU timekeeper battery was replaced, reinstall the host software using the software media that is included as part of the equipment. 2. In the event the monitor does not start up following a mains power loss during active monitoring, continue patient assessment with other methods until a replacement monitor or display has been connected. 3. Update any facility planned maintenance schedules to remove CPU timekeeper battery replacement. Only change the battery if "Service Monitor Error Code 0xHOST1100" error message occurs.
