About the Recall:

This recall was issued duet to a field safety notice from Intersurgical Ltd., the manufacturer of the NIV Angled Mouthpiece with Notch 22F/15F, indicating some lots were produced with unintended open slits on the side of the mouthpiece body.  This allows some of the respiratory gas to escape and thus reduces effectiveness of the related Vivo 45 LS US device.
