Potential for rubber fragment detachment during use.
Olympus is recalling single-use biopsy valves (model MAJ-210) because rubber parts might detach during use. This could cause injury if fragments enter the body. The recall affects 20 valves per box sold with specific UDI-DI numbers.
The biopsy valve is designed to attach to endoscopes to prevent fluid reflux. During use, rubber components could detach and potentially enter the body, causing injury.
Medical professionals using the valves during procedures are most at risk. Patients undergoing endoscopy with these valves may also be affected.
Check for the model number MAJ-210 on the valve packaging. Look for UDI-DI numbers 14953170152433 or 14953170452069 on the valve's label. These valves come in boxes of 20 units.
