Reason for Recall

The real-time numeric value for ventricular end-diastolic pressure (EDP) displayed on the Live Display may be inaccurate. Because ventricular pressure monitoring is only performed in the cardiac catheterization procedure room using the FC2010 device, the FC2020 device, which is used in the Pre or Post-Op Holding Areas, is not impacted by this issue.
