Baxter International has issued an urgent medical device recall for Life2000 ventilators because of potential battery charger damage that can prevent the device from charging.

Baxter has received one serious injury complaint potentially related to this issue and is working with customers to replace affected Life2000 ventilator devices.

Damage to the battery charger dongle prevents the ventilator’s internal battery from charging. If the Life2000 ventilator fails to charge or has intermittent charging behavior, this may leave the patient unable to use the device.

What to do

Baxter has contacted affected customers, instructing them to inspect the condition of the battery charger dongle and confirm the device is charging properly. If damage is observed or the battery is not charging properly, patients should contact Baxter Home Care Customer Service to have the device replaced immediately. 

If no damage is observed and the battery is charging properly, patients may continue to use the ventilator and Baxter will replace the device at the patient’s next scheduled in-home visit with a clinical trainer.

The Urgent Medical Device Recall applies to the Life2000 ventilator with product code MS01-0118 with an attached battery charger dongle. The impacted ventilators were distributed in the United States between Aug. 21, 2023 and April 2, 2024.

Baxter has notified the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of this action. Any product quality complaints or adverse events experienced with the use of these products may be reported using one of the following options:

Two brands of potassium chloride extended-release capsules are being recalled because they might not dissolve, posing a threat of cardiac arrest. 

Glenmark Laboratories recalled 114 batches of its 750 mg capsules, saying the failed dissolution of potassium chloride extended-release capsules may cause high potassium levels, also known as hyperkalemia, which can result in irregular heartbeat that can lead to cardiac arrest. 

“For patients who require chronic use of potassium chloride extended-release oral capsules, especially in those patients with underlying comorbidities or conditions that cause altered excretory mechanisms for potassium such as hypertension, heart failure, or renal dysfunction, there is a reasonable probability of developing hyperkalemia that may lead to a range of severity of adverse events from being asymptomatic to more severe potential life-threatening adverse events of hyperkalemia such as cardiac arrhythmias, severe muscle weakness, and death,” the company warned. 

American Health Packaging has issued a similar recall of 21 batches of the same capsules, also made by Glenmark but distributed by BluePoint Laboratories. The drugs are used for the treatment of patients with low potassium (hypokalemia) and are packaged in bottles of 100-count (NDC 68001-396-00) and 500-count (NDC 68001-396-03) capsules.

The recalled potassium chloride extended-release capsules were distributed nationwide to wholesale, distributor, and retail outlets.

What to do

Consumers who have potassium chloride extended-release capsules subject to the recall should consult with their physician or health care provider before they stop using the product. Consumers should also contact their physician or healthcare provider if they have experienced any problems that may be related to taking or using this drug product.
