HeartStart Intrepid Monitor/Defibrillator

Issued July 22, 2024
Issue
When monitoring ECG using either a 5-lead or 10-lead ECG cable, the HeartStart Intrepid Monitor/Defibrillator may display intermittent ECG waveforms when the fourth limb lead is placed on the patient. The ECG tracing is normal when only three limb leads are connected (right arm, left arm, and left leg). However, when there are one or more poor ECG lead connections to the patient, the ECG tracing either displays a dashed line or is intermittent between waveform and dashed line. This failure may occur any time the HeartStart Intrepid Monitor/Defibrillator is being used to monitor a 5-lead or 12-lead ECG. Recall Start Date: July 9, 2024
