FDA has given its most serious recall designation to a portable oxygen unit from Western/Scott Fetzer Company (Westlake, OH) after it received complaints that the device can burst into flames. In one case, a healthcare employee sat the OxyTote unit down by his side and the device exploded, killing him. In another, the unit was inadvertently dropped from 4 ft., injuring another person.
The company states that mishandling or dropping the device can spark a flash fire within the device, causing the canister to burst.
