Medcraft recalls 12 sizes of oral airway kits due to potential blockage in the Guedel airway tip, which could impair breathing during medical emergencies.
Devices could potentially contain an occluded or partially occluded Guedel Airway tip.
Medcraft is recalling 12 sizes of oral airway kits because the Guedel airway tip might be blocked or partially blocked, which could prevent proper airway management during medical emergencies. This is a serious hazard for people using these kits in critical situations.
The Guedel airway tip in these kits may become occluded or partially occluded, meaning it could block the airway. This could prevent proper airway management during medical emergencies, such as when a patient needs to breathe.
Medical professionals and emergency responders who use these kits during procedures are most at risk. Patients relying on these kits for airway management could be affected if the tip becomes blocked.
Check for the brand 'Medcraft' and product codes 1100050 (blue, size 00) or 1000035 (light green, size 000). The kits are sold in sizes 5 through 12 and have specific lot numbers listed in the recall notice.
Inspect the Guedel airway tip for blockage or partial blockage before use.
Sizes 5, 6.5, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 12.
Look for product codes 1100050 (blue, size 00) or 1000035 (light green, size 000).
The recall does not provide a fix; users should check for blockage before use.
