Angiodynamics recalls Soft-Vu Angiographic Catheters with a defect that may prevent guidewires from passing through the hub, risking procedure complications. Affected units include specific model numbers and lot codes.
The affected devices contain a manufacturing defect which may prevent the appropriately sized guidewire from passing through the inner diameter (ID) of the catheter hub.
Angiodynamics is recalling Soft-Vu Angiographic Catheters that may have a defect preventing guidewires from passing through the hub. This could lead to procedure complications if the catheter is used in medical procedures.
The catheter hub's inner diameter may be too small for the appropriate guidewire size, causing the guidewire to get stuck. This could lead to complications during medical procedures, such as the need for additional interventions or delays.
Healthcare professionals using the catheter during medical procedures are most at risk. Patients receiving the catheter for imaging procedures may also be affected.
Check for the model number SOFT-VU KMP 4F X 65CM 038 NB 0SH and catalog number 10714014. Affected units were manufactured in specific lots: A2825033, A2825034, A2825132, A2825133, A3725048, A3725049.
Verify the model number and catalog number to confirm if your catheter is affected.
The recall indicates a potential defect that may prevent guidewires from passing through the hub, so affected units should not be used until the remedy is applied.
The recall does not specify a remedy, so contact Angiodynamics directly for guidance on next steps.
Check for the model number SOFT-VU KMP 4F X 65CM 038 NB 0SH and catalog number 10714014, along with the specific lot numbers listed in the recall.
