Arrow recalls AGB+ Multi-Lumen CVC Kits with inconsistent labeling of spring wire guide size. This may cause confusion in medical use but does not pose a safety risk.
The products labeling contains inconsistencies. In certain instances, the lidstock, banner card and shipper label state that the Spring Wire Guide (SWG) within is .032 rather than the correct SWG size .025 . For other lots in scope the lidstock correctly states the SWG size .025 however the banner card states the incorrect SWG size .032 .
Arrow is recalling certain AGB+ Multi-Lumen CVC Kits due to inconsistent labeling of the spring wire guide size. This labeling error could lead to confusion during medical procedures but does not pose a safety risk to users.
The labeling inconsistency shows the spring wire guide as either .025 or .032 inches in different parts of the packaging. This could cause confusion when selecting the correct size for medical procedures, but it does not create a physical safety hazard.
Healthcare professionals using the Arrow AGB+ Multi-Lumen CVC Kits with specific lot numbers are most at risk. Patients receiving these kits are not affected by the labeling issue.

Verify the spring wire guide size on the lidstock, banner card, and shipper label to ensure it matches the correct .025 inch size.
