Two deaths, 109 injuries in U.S. linked to faulty Philips heart monitor device

At least two deaths and over a hundred injuries have been linked to a malfunctioning heart monitoring device from Philips and its subsidiary, Braemer. The company affirmed in a statement that that the problem was related to mishandled data that either failed to identify serious heart-related abnormalities, or identified them but failed to notify a patient’s healthcare provider as required.
