Abstrakt:	We report on probable factory-based contamination of portable water heaters with waterborne pathogens and 2 bloodstream infections potentially attributable to off-label use of these water heaters to warm extracorporeal membrane oxygenation circuits. Great caution is warranted when using water-based devices to care for critically ill patients. Competing Interests: Potential conflicts of interest. M. B., C. R., and M. K. have received grant funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention within the past 3 years for research on severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 prevention and transmission and currently receive grant funding for research on unrelated topics. C. R. and M. K. also have grant funding from AHRQ. M. K. receives funding from the Massachusetts Department of Public Health to support public health surveillance. M. K. has received royalties from UpToDate, Inc., for chapters on preventing nosocomial pneumonia and other unrelated topics. C. R. has received royalties from UpToDate, Inc., for chapters related to procalcitonin use. M. H. H. and M. R. S. are employees of Day Zero Diagnostics. A. S. received consulting fees from Inspira Technologies. R. S. reports consulting fees from BD. C. R. reports consulting fees from Pfizer and Cytovale. M. B. reports holding a leadership or fiduciary role on the SHEA Guidelines Committee. All other authors report no potential conflicts. (© The Author(s) 2022.
