Merit Medical recalls custom tubing kits with serial numbers K04-00417, K04-00963, K04-01029 due to potential air trapping in medical lines that could affect patient safety.
High pressure tubing may relax over time causing it to partially separate from the connector resulting in a void that can trap air in the line. Use of the affected product may result in the trapped air being introduced into the patient.
Merit Medical is recalling specific custom tubing kits because high pressure tubing may relax over time, creating a void that traps air in the medical line. This trapped air could be introduced into the patient during use, posing a risk to their health.
The tubing may relax over time, creating a gap between the tubing and connector. This gap can trap air in the medical line, which might then be introduced into the patient during use, potentially causing health issues.

Check the product reference numbers (K04-00417, K04-00963, K04-01029) on the tubing kit. The kits were sold with specific expiration dates and serial numbers listed in the recall notice.
