Potential small holes at the seam lines of Hemashield branches causing intra-operative bleeding at the seam lines of the branches of Hemashield grafts
Maquet is recalling Hemashield Platinum Vascular Grafts that may have small holes at seam lines, which could cause bleeding during surgery. This is a serious risk for patients undergoing vascular repair procedures.
The grafts may develop small holes at the seam lines during surgical use, leading to bleeding at the graft connections. This could cause significant blood loss during the procedure, potentially requiring emergency interventions.
Healthcare professionals using the Hemashield Platinum Vascular Grafts for arterial repair procedures are most at risk. Patients who have received these grafts during surgery may also be affected.
