DEFIBRILLATOR RECALL NOTICE
A world-wide recall notice has just been released for later models of the Heartsine Samaritan PAD range of AEDs (as shown).
Units manufactured from 2021 to 2024 are affected. You can easily check your year of manufacture (YOM) by looking at the serial number (small sticker on the back of the AED) which has "SN" followed by 2 numbers-1 letter-then a series of numbers. The first 2 numbers before the letter indicate the YOM - 23B means your AED was manufactured in 2023. The letter is irrelevant, just the first 2 numbers.
If your Heartsine Samaritan PAD of any model was manufactured in 2021 / 2022 / 2023 / 2024, then it is subject to this recall.
Advice from the manufacturer is "DO NOT REMOVE THE AED FROM SERVICE" until further information is made available. As soon as more details are released, we will be contacting our customers with additional information.
If anyone has concerns about their AED, please call us direct on (02) 4960 8608. Remember, do not remove your AED from service, AED recall notices are issued as soon as any problem has been identified anywhere in the world. The problem that has been identified may not actually affect your device. We won't know until further information is released.
