This FDA Devices action (record #Z-0807-2014) was formally reported on January 29, 2014, with the manufacturer initiating the action on December 5, 2013. It is classified under Moderate severity (Class II), with a current status of Terminated. GE Healthcare, LLC is listed as the recalling firm, operating out of Waukesha, WI. Federal records indicate 2516 (2,321 US, 195 OUS) units are affected, placing this recall in the million-unit bracket that typically triggers nationwide consumer alerts and retailer sweeps.
The documented reason for this recall is: Intermittent noise on ECG and/or Respiration waveforms associated with movement of the ECG cable connector on the DASH, PDM, and/or Tram Module. May result in reduced ECG, Respiration and arrhythmia detection performanc… Distribution data in the federal record shows the product reached: Worldwide Distribution: US (nationwide) including DC and PR except SD, VT and WY; and Internationally to: ARGENTINA, AUSTRALIA, AUSTRIA, BAHRAIN, BELGIUM, BRAZIL, CHINA, COLOMBIA, COSTA RICA, CROATIA, CZECH REPUBLIC, EG…. Distribution scope directly affects the consumer exposure window and determines whether a recall remains regional or escalates into a nationwide advisory.
To put this record in context, PlainRecalls indexes 83,949 recalls across the FDA, CPSC, NHTSA and USDA FSIS going back to 1995. Within the same product category, the database holds 6 closely related recalls, of which 6 were also issued by FDA Devices. That clustering is a signal — repeated actions in a narrow category often indicate a systemic quality-control issue, a supplier-wide contamination, or a design defect that has propagated across product lines. This recall is roughly 12 years old; older recalls can remain relevant because many units enter resale, rental, and secondary-market channels where the original warning never reaches the end user. Always cross-check the recall number against the official agency page before relying on any summary.

SOLAR 8000 AND TRANSPORT PRO WITH PATIENT DATA MODULE (Marketed As GE Healthcare CARESCAPE Patient Data Module) Product Usage: The Patient Data Module (PDM) is intended to provide uninterrupted acquisition of physiologic parameter data on adult, pediatric and neonatal patients during non-transport/bedside and transport patient care episodes. The Solar 8000i with Patient Data Module/Transport Pro with Patient Data Module is intended for use under the direct supervision of a licensed healthcare practitioner, or by personnel trained in proper use of the equipment in a professional medical facility, such as hospital, clinic, surgical center or doctors office. It can be used in multiple areas such as operating room (OR), post anesthesia care unit (PACU), emergency department (ED), chest pain clinic, general intensive care unit (ICU), critical care unit, surgical intensive care unit (SICU), respiratory intensive care unit, coronary care unit (CCU), medical intensive care unit (MICU), pediatric intensive care unit (PICU), or neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). The Patient Data Module (PDM) is intended to provide uninterrupted acquisition of physiologic parameter data on adult, pediatric and neonatal patients during non-transport/bedside and transport patient care episodes. Physiological parameter data acquired by the PDM includes ECG, invasive pressure, non-invasive blood pressure, pulse oximetry, temperature, cardiac output nad respiration. This device acquires, processes and stores information for all aforementioned parameters and transmits this information to a transport or bedside central processing unit for viewing and alarm surveillance purposes. The Transport Pro patient monitor is intended for use as part of a transport monitoring system for intra-healthcare facility transport. When used with the Patient Data Module (PDM) or the TRAM acquisition module, this device is intended to provide uninterrupted monitoring of physiologic parameter data for adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients during transport from one area of the healthcare facility to another. Physiological parameter data includes ECG, invasive pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, pulse oximetry, temperature and respiration. Both the PDM and TRAM acquisition module acquire, process and store information for all aforementioned parameters. The Solar 8000i patient monitoring system is a multi-parameter physiological patient monitoring system intended for use on adult, pediatric and neonatal patients. It provides uninterrupted monitoring of physiological patient data. The Solar 8000i patient monitoring system is capable of monitoring and analyzing the following parameters for all patient populations: Electrocardiogram, invasive pressure, non-invasive blood pressure, pulse, temperature, cardiac output, respiration, pulse oximetry, venous oxygen saturation, transcutaneous pO2 and pCO2, CO2 and respiratory mechanics. The Solar 8000i patient monitoring system is capable of GE Healthcare Page 3 of 6 monitoring the following parameters for adult and pediatric patient populations: anesthetic agent concentrations, O2, impedance cardiography, electroencephalography and bispectral index. The Solar 8000i patient monitoring system interfaces with a variety of third-party peripheral medical devices that support serial and /or analog data outputs. Information from these devices can be displayed, trended and stored in the monitoring system. The solar 8000i patient monitoring system also provides physiological data over the Unity Network.
Intermittent noise on ECG and/or Respiration waveforms associated with movement of the ECG cable connector on the DASH, PDM, and/or Tram Module. May result in reduced ECG, Respiration and arrhythmia detection performance.
