Maquet recalls specific ECC packs due to potential sterility issues during sterilization. Affected units have batch numbers listed; users should check their product.
Custom Tubing Sets for Extracorporeal Circulation (ECC)-During sterilization, the closed stopcock/non-vented cap configuration may prevent the flow of humidity/ethylene oxide gas into the fluid-path between the closed port and the non-vented cap therefore the Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of the stopcock ports cannot be assured
