Aesculap recalls Caspar Cervical Retractor Basket ME754 and ME764 due to mislabeled GTIN numbers. This affects medical devices used in surgeries. No immediate action needed as the product is safe but must be identified correctly.
Mislabeled: Product is marked with GTIN # 04046955299592 however; the correct GTIN # is 04046955299607.
Aesculap is recalling two types of cervical retractors (ME754 and ME764) because they have the wrong GTIN number on the label. This mislabeling doesn't cause harm but means the product might be confused with a different item in medical settings.
The product is mislabeled with an incorrect GTIN number (04046955299592 instead of 04046955299607). This could lead to confusion with another product in medical settings, but it does not cause injury or malfunction.
Medical professionals using cervical retractors in surgeries or dental procedures may own these products. Patients are not directly affected as the issue is a labeling error, not a safety hazard.
Check for the GTIN number 04046955299592 on the label. The product is a lid for a cervical retractor basket used in surgeries or dental procedures.
Check the product label for the GTIN number 04046955299592. If it matches, the product is correctly labeled.
No, the mislabeled GTIN does not cause injury or malfunction. The product is safe but must be correctly identified to avoid confusion with another item.
No action is needed. The product is safe but should be checked for the correct GTIN number to ensure it's not confused with another item.
Check the GTIN number on the label. If it's 04046955299592, it's the correct product; otherwise, contact Aesculap for clarification.
