WASHINGTON - Laerdal Medical Corp. is recalling more than 3,000 defibrillator adapter cables, sold nationwide since 1996, after receiving reports that broken wires in the cables prevented delivery of shocks to patients.
The Wappingers Falls, N.Y., company said Thursday that consumers should stop using the CodeMaster 100-HeartStart Adapter Cables, which went out of production last year.
