Teleflex recalls specific Preformed AGT Oral Endotracheal Tubes due to reports of 15mm connector disconnection. Affected units have batch numbers listed in the recall notice.
Reports of disconnection of the 15mm connector from the endotracheal tube (ET tube) for the affected products.
Teleflex is recalling certain Preformed AGT Oral Endotracheal Tubes because reports indicate the 15mm connector can disconnect from the tube. This could lead to breathing issues during medical procedures if the tube becomes disconnected.
The 15mm connector on the affected tubes has been reported to disconnect during use. This disconnection could cause the tube to become separated from the patient's airway, leading to breathing difficulties or potential medical emergencies.
Healthcare professionals using the recalled endotracheal tubes during medical procedures are most at risk. Patients receiving these tubes could experience breathing difficulties if the connector disconnects.
