“ARROW Endurance Catheter System Recall: Potential for separation or leakage.” GovInfoNow, updated August 19, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/58147-arrow-endurance-catheter-system-recall-potential-for-separation-or-leakage. Based on FDA recall #Z-1826-2023 (https://api.fda.gov/device/enforcement.json?search=recall_number:%22Z-1826-2023%22&limit=1).

Why it’s dangerous

The catheter system may separate or leak due to a manufacturing defect, which could lead to infection or other complications if the catheter isn't properly secured. This risk is higher for patients who use the catheter for extended periods.

Who’s affected

People who use medical catheters for extended periods, such as those in hospitals or home care settings, are most at risk. Patients with catheters that have the listed product codes or UDI batch numbers are affected.

How to tell if you have this one

Check the product code on the catheter system (e.g., ASK-00620-MSH, ASK-00620-TMC) and the UDI batch number listed in the recall notice. The specific batch numbers are detailed in the recall record.
