Medline recalls Thoracic Robots DYNJ908777B due to potential rubber fragments detaching from biopsy valves, risking airway obstruction and medical intervention.
Kits contain recalled Olympus biopsy valves. Olympus is investigating an increase in complaints associated with rubber fragment detachment in the slit of single use biopsy valves. Potential consequences associated with detachment of fragments from valve include foreign body in patient's tracheobronchial tree, which may require intervention for removal. Other potential consequences include inflammatory response, hypoxia, and prolongation of procedure.
Medline is recalling Thoracic Robots with specific model numbers because their biopsy valves may detach rubber fragments that could enter the patient's airway. This poses a risk of requiring medical intervention to remove the fragments.
