Reports of disconnection of the 15mm connector from the endotracheal tube (ET tube) for the affected products.
Teleflex is recalling Preformed AGT Oral Endotracheal Tubes with certain batch numbers because reports indicate the 15mm connector can disconnect from the tube. This disconnection could lead to airway obstruction if the tube becomes disconnected during medical procedures.
