Reason for recall

The AC power module may fail at a higher than expected rate. If a fully charged battery is not properly installed, the HeartStart MRx may lose all power and fail to operate. Interruption of monitoring and failure or delay in the delivery of a shock or pacing can occur. A faulty AC Power Module may also fail to charge the battery.
