Cardinal Health is recalling 24Fr Jackson-Pratt Channel Drains with model JP-2234 because they have performance problems such as poor radiopacity and broken tips. This could lead to issues during medical procedures if the drains don't function as intended.
The drains may not show up clearly on X-rays (lack of radiopacity), have dull trocars that affect performance, be too stiff, or break easily. These issues could lead to problems during medical procedures if the drains don't work properly.
Medical professionals using these drains during surgeries or wound care are most at risk. Patients receiving these drains may experience complications if the product fails.
Check for the model number JP-2234 on the drain, lot numbers N210278 through N220163, and UDI/DI codes 50885380182660 or 50885380182669.
