HEARTSTART DEFIBRILLATION PADS

Reason

A problem has been identified in certain philips m5072a heartstart infant/child smart pads cartridges (lot y111220-01) which are used with the philips heartstart onsite and heartstart home automated external defibrillators (aeds). The problem is related to the graphic on the cover for the pads cartridge incorrectly showing application to an adult instead of a child.
