Abbott recalls NC TREK Coronary Dilatation Catheters with potential balloon deflation issues. This device is used for coronary artery procedures and may cause complications if the balloon cannot deflate properly.
Coronary Dilatation Catheters may exhibit difficulty or inability to deflate the balloon.
Abbott is recalling specific NC TREK Coronary Dilatation Catheters that may have trouble deflating the balloon during medical procedures. This could lead to complications if the balloon remains inflated in the artery, potentially causing injury.
The catheter's balloon may not deflate properly during use, which could cause the balloon to remain inflated in the artery. This might lead to blockage or damage to the coronary artery, especially during critical procedures like angioplasty.
Healthcare professionals using the recalled catheters for coronary procedures are most at risk. Patients undergoing these procedures may be affected if the catheter is used without proper deflation.
