Why was Panorama 1.0T HFO recalled?

If the system is unable to contain the pressured helium gas due to an unforeseen blockage in the system, risks to patients and/or operators that may lead to injury or death include chemical exposure (i.e. helium gas) that may expand to surrounding rooms, contusion caused by debris, and asphyxia.
