Recalled products

A. Terumo Advanced Perfusion System 1 

Reason

Terumo Cardiovascular Systems (Terumo CVS) has become aware through internal testing that the Terumo Advanced Perfusion System 1 operator's manual does not completely describe the system's centrifugal pump response under certain conditions. Specifically, if the user is adjusting the pump speed using the Central Control Monitor (CCM) or the manual speed knob on the centrifugal control unit at the same time an event occurs (which would activate the coast response mode on the pump).
