  • openFDA Device Enforcement Report-date coverage June 20, 2012–July 08, 2026 Known gap: openFDA describes 2004-present coverage, but the current export has no report-date records in this interval.
  • openFDA Device Recall event_date_initiated coverage June 01, 1997–June 30, 2026

Enforcement coverage uses report dates; product initiation dates can precede those bounds. Device-enrichment coverage uses FDA event_date_initiated.

App-derived interpretation

Unknown reason.no_named_rule · v1.0.0
The flow sensors built prior to June 2021 could have damaged tubes with small punctures or cuts that could cause leaks resulting in incorrect anesthesia machine tidal volumes potentially leading to over-delivery of volume to the patient.

These labels are deterministic app interpretations, not FDA categories.

Official device-enrichment evidence · Unknown

An exact joined enrichment record exists, but none supplies supported root-cause wording. This is not an FDA finding of an unknown cause.
