Stryker recalls 18" and 24" yellow/red color cuffs with potential detachment at welding connection, causing pressure loss. Affected units include specific serial numbers.
Due to potential for tourniquet cuffs to detach from the bladder at the welding connection and result in the cuff not being able to maintain pressure.
Stryker is recalling certain color cuffs that may detach at the welding connection, preventing proper pressure maintenance. This could lead to ineffective use during medical procedures.
The tourniquet cuffs can detach from the bladder at the welding connection, which means they may not maintain proper pressure during medical procedures. This could lead to ineffective blood flow control.

Check for the model numbers: 5921-018-135 (18" red), 5921-018-235 (18" red), or 5921-024-235 (24" yellow). The serial numbers listed in the recall record indicate affected units.
