What You Should Do
The firm initiated their recall of this device on October 17, 2011 by issuing a letter to the consignee instructing customers to follow the Instructions for Use and use the Infinity Central Station only for remote assessment of a patient's status. They recommend that you do not consider the waveforms on Infinity Central Station for primary diagnosis purposes. In case of a high priority alarm situation, "Check the patient and treat if necessary". If the misalignment issue is observed, it can be cleared by undocking and redocking the M540 or by changing the order of waveforms displayed on the Cockpit screen (or any other change to the auto display screen layout).
