Angiodynamics recalls specific AccuVu angiographic catheters due to a defect that may prevent guidewires from passing through the hub, risking procedure complications.
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 because a manufacturing defect could prevent the correct size guidewire from passing through the catheter hub. This could lead to complications during medical procedures.
The catheter hub's inner diameter may be too small for the appropriate guidewire size to pass through, potentially causing the catheter to become stuck during procedures. This could lead to complications like vessel damage or procedure failure.
Healthcare professionals using the recalled catheters during medical procedures are most at risk. Patients undergoing angiographic procedures with these catheters may face complications.
Check for the model: AccuVu OF 4F X 70CM 035 NB 6SH 2 R/O 2CM. Look for catalog number 13709005 or product numbers H787137090055 (box) and H787137090050 (pouch).
Verify the model number and product numbers listed in the recall notice to confirm if your catheter is affected.
The affected catheters have a manufacturing defect that may prevent the appropriately sized guidewire from passing through the inner diameter of the hub.
Check the product details to see if your catheter is affected. If it is, contact Angiodynamics for further instructions.
The recall indicates a risk of procedure complications, but the official notice does not specify a risk of serious injury.
