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 certain small patient circuit tubing sets because improper sterilization could lead to contamination. This affects hospitals and medical facilities using these specific models.
During sterilization, the tubing's closed stopcock design may trap humidity and ethylene oxide gas, preventing proper sterility assurance. This could lead to contaminated equipment if the tubing is not sterilized correctly.
Hospitals and medical facilities using the recalled tubing sets are most at risk. Patients receiving treatments with these circuits could be affected if the tubing fails to sterilize properly.
