Some batches of product were not sterilized to their minimum sterilization specification.
Maquet is recalling some batches of their VASOVIEW HEMOPRO endoscopic vessel harvesting system because the product wasn't properly sterilized. This could lead to infections during surgical procedures if the device is used.
