Boston Scientific recalls AXIOS Stent and Electrocautery-Enhanced Delivery System 15mmx10mm with specific lot numbers. The outer sheath tip may detach during use, preventing proper stent expansion and requiring device exchange.
Reported Outer sheath distal black tip detaching from the device can remain around the stent saddle, preventing proper expansion, resulting in prolongation of the procedure to exchange the device for a new one.
Boston Scientific is recalling certain AXIOS Stent and Electrocautery-Enhanced Delivery Systems because the outer sheath tip can detach during use. This may prevent the stent from expanding properly, leading to longer procedures and requiring a device exchange.
The outer sheath's black tip can detach from the stent during deployment. If it remains around the stent saddle, it blocks proper expansion of the stent, which may require the procedure to be repeated or the device exchanged.
Patients undergoing cardiac procedures who own the recalled stent system with specific lot numbers are most at risk. The hazard affects the device during use, not after it's implanted.
Check the lot numbers listed in the recall: 32891503, 32946481, 32966087, and other specific numbers provided in the recall notice. The product is a 15mmx10mm AXIOS Stent and Electrocautery-Enhanced Delivery System.
Look for the lot number on the device packaging or label to confirm if it's in the recalled list.
If the device is recalled, Boston Scientific will provide instructions for device exchange or repair.
