Teleflex received the attached Medical Device Recall Notice from Pajunk Medical. Teleflex Medical is a distributor of Pajunk products. According to the notice, Pajunk internally identified a packaging problem that may affect certain batches of the SPROTTE lumbar puncture cannulas with introducer. Due to this problem Pajunk cannot guarantee the sterility of the affected batches.
