Cardinal Health recalls 7mm Channel Drains (JP-2211) due to performance issues like lack of radiopacity and broken tips. Affected units have specific lot numbers and UDI/DI codes.
Cardinal Health recently received multiple complaints regarding various performance issues with Cardinal Health Jackson-Pratt Channel Drains including lack of radiopacity in wound drains, dull trocars impacting product performance, lack of flexibility of wound drains, and broken wound tips.
Cardinal Health is recalling 7mm Channel Drains (JP-2211) because they have been reported to lack radiopacity, have dull trocars, lack flexibility, and break easily. This could lead to complications during wound drainage procedures.
The drains can become dull, lack flexibility, and break easily, which may cause issues with proper wound drainage. Lack of radiopacity means they are harder to see on X-rays, potentially leading to complications.
Medical professionals using these drains for wound drainage procedures are most at risk. Patients receiving these drains during surgery may also be affected.
Check for the model number JP-2211 and lot numbers N210278 through N220163. The UDI/DI codes 50885380182486(cs) and 20885380182485(ea) also identify affected units.
Verify the model number (JP-2211) and lot numbers listed in the recall notice to confirm if your drain is affected.
