Nevision Medical recalls x5 RLN Monitoring Kit with Cobra EMG ET tube (6.0mm) due to risk of signal loss from electrode insulation softening. Affected kits have specific lot numbers and were sold for nerve monitoring during surgery.
The electrode insulating material on the Cobra EMG ET tube used for continuous EMG monitoring may soften over time so that it may be more susceptible to damage by scratching or bending, which could stop or inhibit the EMG signal transmission of the electrodes to the monitor and render the device not usable.
Nevision Medical is recalling its x5 RLN Monitoring Kit with Cobra 1-Ch EMG ET tube (6.0mm) because the electrode insulation may soften over time, causing signal transmission issues. This could render the device unusable during critical nerve monitoring procedures.
