ICU Medical recalls central venous catheters due to guidewire not passing through needles, which may cause complications during hemodynamic monitoring.
Inability for the guidewire to pass through the needles included with the catheter kits.
ICU Medical is recalling central venous catheters that may prevent guidewires from passing through the needles. This could lead to complications during hemodynamic monitoring procedures.
The catheters may not allow guidewires to pass through the needles, which can cause complications during hem: hemodynamic monitoring procedures. This issue arises because the catheter design does not accommodate the guidewire movement.
Healthcare professionals using these catheters for hemodynamic monitoring are most at risk. Patients receiving this monitoring may also be affected.
Check for model numbers 41406-23 and lot numbers UDI-4155999/1 0840619 04642 9 or 4192320/1 0840619 04642 9. These catheters were sold for hemodynamic monitoring.
Look for model number 41406-23 on the catheter packaging or label.
The catheters may prevent guidewires from passing through the needles, which could cause complications during hemodynamic monitoring procedures.
