Issue:The manufacturer has identified that, during manufacturing, the laterality identification labels may have been omitted or incorrectly applied to the device. Specifically, there is a possibility that the labels on the green cables were switched, resulting in the channel 1 cable being labelled as channel 2 and the channel 2 cable being labelled as channel 1. This may cause a discrepancy between the left and right values displayed on the monitor and the corresponding labels on the cables.
