Angiodynamics recalls BIOFLO 8F titanium ports due to snap lock connector issues that may delay implantation procedures. Affected units have specific model numbers and were sold for long-term IV access.
Snap lock connectors provided within implantable port kits may not meet dimensional specifications, and the catheter cannot be inserted into the snap lock connector prior to connection to the port chamber, resulting in a delay to the implantation procedure.
Angiodynamics recalls certain BIOFLO 8F titanium ports because their snap lock connectors might not fit properly, causing delays during implantation procedures. This could affect patients needing long-term IV access for treatments like chemotherapy.
The snap lock connectors in these ports may not meet precise size requirements. This can prevent the catheter from connecting properly to the port chamber before implantation, causing delays in the procedure.
Patients using long-term IV access systems for chemotherapy, hydration, or blood products are likely affected. Those with the specific model numbers listed in the recall are at risk.
Check for the model number H965440250 or catalog number 44-025 on the port device. These ports are used for long-term central venous access for treatments like chemotherapy.
