name: Brand Name: ZOLL Product Name: Powerheart G5 AED Model/Catalog Number: (1) G5A-80A, (2) G5A-80A-TSO. Software Version: NA Product Description: The Powerheart G5 automated external defibrillator (AED) is designed for treating life-threatening heart beat irregularities, such as ventricular fibrillation, that cause Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA). There are two models available fully automatic and semi-automatic. After the defibrillations pads are applied to the patient, the fully automatic model evaluates the heart rhythm and, if a shockable rhythm is detected, delivers a shock without any rescuer assistance. The semi-automatic model evaluates the heart rhythm and requires the rescuer to press the shock button if a shockable rhythm is detected. Both models have voice and text instructions that guide the rescuer through the entire defibrillation process. Note: Not all configurations described in this document are available in all areas.

FDA classified recall Z-1317-2025 as Class II
type: Claim
text: The FDA assigned this recall Class II: Class II — the FDA judged the product may cause temporary or medically reversible harm, with a remote chance of serious harm.. This is the FDA's official risk classification — its regulatory DETERMINATION of the hazard category (a verdict constituted by the FDA's recognition, occurred=FALSE), adjudged=TRUE because the FDA issued it. It is NOT a measurement of harm to any specific person.

falsifier: occurred=FALSE: a regulatory DETERMINATION (an authority's classification/judgment) has NO material truthmaker independent of recognition — it is constituted by U.S. FDA recall classification (openFDA enforcement)'s say-so (a Searle institutional fact), not measured. adjudged=TRUE because U.S. FDA recall classification (openFDA enforcement) (an external authority) issued it. Distinct from a recorded measurement (which has an independent truthmaker) and from a modeled figure (a computed quantity, not a verdict). Challengeable; superseded if the authority reclassifies.

What an FDA recall is — and is NOT
type: Claim
text: A recall is a RECORDED FDA enforcement action — the FDA logged that a firm is removing or correcting a product, classed by the FDA's risk judgment. It does NOT establish that any specific unit is affected or caused harm; causation is not established. This record informs and compares — it is NOT medical advice and does not tell anyone to start or stop a drug or device. For a medical decision, route to the FDA recall record and a licensed pharmacist or prescriber.

  source: Atlas Commons L5 boundary (enforcement-action ≠ harm causation)

  value: a recorded enforcement action, not proof of harm or causation; not medical advice
falsifier: occurred=FALSE (a framing, not an event) and adjudged=FALSE (an in-house reading, not an authority's verdict) — the LOWEST-warrant claim here. A flat representation would render this identically to the official facts; the four-status does not.
