Angiodynamics recalls Soft-Vu Angiographic Catheters with a defect that may prevent guidewires from passing through the hub, risking procedure complications. Affected models include SOFT-VU OF 4F X 65CM 038 NB 6SH with specific catalog and lot numbers.
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 not allow properly sized guidewires to pass through the hub. This defect could cause complications during medical procedures if the catheter is used without proper wire passage.
The catheter hub's inner diameter may be too small for the correct guidewire size, preventing it from passing through. This could lead to procedure complications like blockages or failed imaging if the catheter is used without the guidewire moving properly.
Healthcare professionals using the catheter during medical procedures are most at risk. Patients undergoing angiographic procedures with the affected catheter may experience complications.
Check for the model SOFT-VU OF 4F X 65CM 038 NB 6SH with catalog number 10714001. The affected items have lot numbers A2425078, A3325036, A3525030, A3525031, or A3725102.
Verify the model number, catalog number, and lot numbers listed in the recall notice to confirm if your catheter is affected.
The recall states the catheter may have a defect that prevents guidewires from passing through the hub, so it should not be used until the issue is resolved.
The recall does not specify a remedy, so contact Angiodynamics directly for guidance on next steps.
