LifePak15 Monitor/Defibrillator

Reason

During a review of product complaints reviewed from product launch to September 2019, Stryker - Physio Control has become aware that certain LifePak 15 Monitor/Defibrillators may not deliver a defibrillation shock when the device "shock" button is pressed as a result of oxidation that has formed over time within the button. The hard paddle shock button is not affected by this issue.
