MedComp recalls Power Injectable CT Port insertion kits with incorrect 6.6F port instead of 5F. This may cause prolonged surgery and increased surgical risks. Affected kits have catalog number MRDP50AXS.
The 5F Dignity CT Port kits were packaged with the incorrect size port. The kits include a 6.6F port instead of the correct 5F port. The inability to connect the catheter lumen to the port stem because of the incorrect size may not be noted until well into the procedure, after the catheter lumen is placed in the vessel. An alternate port will need to be obtained prolonging the procedure. A prolonged insertion procedure increases any risk associated with a surgical procedure.
