Arrow recalls arterial catheter kits with incorrect MRI safety labeling. The kit may be unsafe for MRI scans due to mislabeled magnetic resonance compatibility.
The lidstock label incorrectly displays a MR (Magnetic Resonance ) Conditional symbol (instead of a MR Unsafe symbol) in reference to a component of the kit
Arrow is recalling arterial catheter kits that have a label error showing an MRI-safe symbol instead of MRI-unsafe. This could lead to dangerous MRI scans if the kit is used incorrectly.
The kit's label incorrectly shows an MRI-safe symbol (MR) instead of an MRI-unsafe symbol. This could cause harm during MRI scans if the kit contains metal components that interfere with the magnetic field.
Healthcare professionals using the Arrow Arterial Catheterization Kit may be affected. Those performing procedures requiring MRI compatibility checks are most at risk.
Check for the product code ASK-040:20-PMC on the kit. The kit was sold with lot/batch number PMC 23F19H0224.
Verify the label shows the correct MRI unsafe symbol (not the MR safe symbol) for the kit.
The recall indicates the label shows an incorrect MRI-safe symbol instead of MRI-unsafe. This could cause harm during MRI scans.
The official notice does not specify a remedy or action steps beyond checking the label for the correct MRI symbol.
Look for product code ASK-04020-PMC and lot/batch number PMC 23F19H0224 on the kit.
