The potential compromise of the sterility of products from an undersealed chevron in the packaging pouches of Torcon NB Advantage Catheters.
Cook is recalling Torcon NB Advantage Catheters because the packaging may not seal properly, risking contamination. This could lead to infections or other complications if the catheters are used without proper sterility.
The catheters' packaging pouches may have an undersealed chevron, which could compromise sterility. If the packaging is not properly sealed, the catheters might become contaminated during use, increasing infection risk.
