ICU Medical recalls certain central venous catheters due to guidewire not passing through needles, which may affect hemodynamic monitoring. Affected units have specific model and lot numbers.
Inability for the guidewire to pass through the needles included with the catheter kits.
ICU Medical is recalling central venous catheters that have a problem with the guidewire not passing through the needles. This could prevent proper hemodynamic monitoring in medical settings, which is critical for patient care.
The catheter's needles may not allow the guidewire to pass through properly. This could lead to incorrect hemodynamic readings, which might affect patient treatment decisions.
Healthcare professionals using these catheters for hemodynamic monitoring are most at risk. Patients receiving this monitoring may be affected if the catheter is used incorrectly.
