Angiodynamics recalls AccuVu 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 certain AccuVu Angiographic Catheters due to a defect that may prevent the correct size guidewire from passing through the catheter hub. This could lead to complications during medical procedures if the catheter is used without proper guidance.
The catheter hub's inner diameter may be too small for the appropriate guidewire size, preventing it from passing through. This could cause the catheter to become stuck during medical procedures, potentially leading to complications like bleeding or tissue damage.
Healthcare professionals using the catheters for medical procedures are most at risk. Patients receiving these catheters during procedures may face complications if the defect causes improper guidewire passage.
