title: User experience network. Medical gas quick-connects may spontaneously detach.
abstract: "Quick-connect" medical gas connectors may occasionally fail and spontaneously detach from medical gas outlets. Minor injuries are possible, though unlikely. ECRI Institute believes this problem may occur with devices from any supplier and that the best solution is to ensure that they are assessed frequently and removed at the first sign of problems.
