ZOLL AED Pro External Defibillator

Reason

A field report was received of the AED Pro prompting "unit failed" during a defibrillation shock attempt. Investigation traced the problem to an area of an internal circuit board that is susceptible to isolation breakdown. If the isolation breakdown occurs during a shock attempt, the device will issue the "unit failed" message and prevent delivery of the energy to the patient.
