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
Maquet is recalling a specific tubing pack model because it could fail to maintain sterility during sterilization. This means the medical device might not be safe for use after standard sterilization procedures.
During sterilization, the tubing's closed stopcock design may trap humidity and ethylene oxide gas. This can compromise the sterility assurance level, potentially leading to contamination of medical equipment.
Healthcare professionals using this tubing pack for extracorporeal circulation (ECC) procedures are most at risk. The recall applies to specific batch numbers sold under the Getinge-BO-T 6600 brand.
Check for the batch number 3000073972 on the tubing pack. The product is labeled as Maquet Getinge-BO-T 6600 Tubing Pack with material code 701052324.
