Vivo 45 LS Ventilator Recall Issued Over Formaldehyde Exposure Risks Exposure to formaldehyde from the Breas Vivo 45 LS ventilators could lead to airway irritation, inflammation, asthma and other side effects. August 12, 2024 Michael Adams Add Your Comments Breas Medical is recalling 8,186 Vivo 45 LS ventilators due to a risk that users may be exposed to elevated levels of formaldehyde, which is a toxic chemical that could lead to dangerous neurological or pulmonary effects, potentially resulting in the need for additional medical treatment. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced the Breas Vivo 45 LS ventilator recall on August 9. The device is one of the smallest compact ventilators on the market and designed for adults and children over 11 pounds. Formaldehyde is an industrial chemical used to make many construction and building materials, paper products and cosmetics. However, exposure to high levels of the chemical is known to cause cancer and other serious health problems when inhaled or absorbed through the skin. Short-term exposure to formaldehyde can cause eye irritation if inhaled or allergic reactions if it touches the skin, while longer exposure can result in lung damage, severe eye irritation, reproductive issues, asthma, allergy-related conditions and even cancer. According to the FDA announcement, exposure to excess amounts of formaldehyde in the ventilator can lead to a multitude of adverse side effects, including airway irritation or inflammation that may lead to airway hyperresponsiveness, such as asthma. This may result in the need for additional medical interventions, such as administration of a bronchodilator, increased duration or degree of ventilation or oxygen support.
