What happened

Terumo Cardiovascular Systems Corporation has recalled two units of the Terumo Advanced Perfusion System 1 Ultrasonic Air Sensor (Catalog Number 5791) with serial numbers 20019 and 20020. Internal testing discovered that a crimped wire was installed backwards in the air bubble detector sensor connector, which prevents the wire from properly locking into the mating connector. This defect creates an intermittent connection that may cause false air bubble alarms during use of the device.

The affected units were distributed worldwide, including across the United States. The recall record does not specify what action affected consumers should take regarding this product.
