Level 1® H-2 Pressure Chambers Urgent Medical Device Correction

Starting July 8, 2022, Smiths Medical/ICU Medical released a global Urgent Medical Device Correction notice to Level 1® H-2 Pressure Chamber customers that a design change made to the hinge assembly in 2015 may lead to decreased flow rate, stopped flow, or residual fluid left within the IV bag.

What are the risks associated with decreased flow rate, stopped flow, or residual fluid left within the IV bag?

Under-delivery or delay of therapy leading to potential inadvertent hypothermia, hypovolemia, and/or hypotension which may lead to serious injury and death.¹
To date, Smiths Medical has received three (3) reports of deaths and sixty-four (64) reports of serious injuries potentially related to this issue.¹
The Level 1 Fast Flow® fluid path is in direct contact with an aluminum heat exchanger and was placed under a Class I FDA recall in August of 2021. The FDA published a Letter to Health Care Providers² about the potential risk of aluminum leaching from certain fluid warmers (including Level 1) and specifically highlights lower flow rates as a risk. Therefore, there may be potential for increased aluminum exposure due to decreased flow rates
