Product
BRAVO PH CAPS DELIVERY DEV5-PK, FGS-0312/FGS-0313 - Product Usage: intended to be used for gastroesophageal pH measurement and monitoring of gastric reflux in adults and children from 4 years of age.
Reason
The capsule may fail to attach to the esophageal mucosa, which in turn may lead to the aspiration of the capsule. In the event of capsule aspiration, immediate intervention to remove the capsule is required. Potential outcomes following capsule aspiration include low oxygen saturation, intervention to retrieve the capsule, potential need to intubate the patient, extended hospital stay and a delay of treatment. Thirteen reports of capsule aspiration have been received the last 2 years.
