Arrow recalls specific lots of AGB+ Multi Lumen CVC kits due to potential contamination from incomplete sealing, risking infection during medical procedures.
Certain lots of cardiovascular catheters may not be completely sealed and so sterility of the product cannot be guaranteed.
Arrow is recalling certain lots of AGB+ Multi Lumen CVC kits because the catheters may not be properly sealed, which could lead to contamination and infection. This is a serious risk for patients undergoing medical procedures that require these catheters.
The catheters may not be completely sealed, which can compromise sterility. If the kit is used without proper sterility, it could introduce harmful bacteria into the bloodstream, causing infection.
Healthcare professionals and patients using the recalled kits for central venous catheterization are at risk. Those with medical conditions requiring catheter access are most vulnerable.
