The recall letter notified users that this defect is easily detectable during normal use and the probability of serious injury or death is remote. The letter was sent to raise awareness of the recent increase in incidence rate of this issue and reminded users of the requirement in the operating manual that requires that the cannula be connected to the patient only after the set temperature is reached. The letter also advised patient care personnel not to use, or to discontinue use of any Disposable Patient Circuit if water is observed leaking into the center lumen or from the cannula. They were instructed to replace the device and report the defect to Vapotherm immediately for further investigation.
