Arrow recalls Multi-Lumen Hemodialysis Catheterization Kits with potential sterility issues. Affected lots may not be sealed properly, 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 Multi-Lumen Hemodialysis Catheterization Kits for high-volume infusions due to possible sterility issues. If the catheters are not properly sealed, they could become contaminated during medical procedures, posing infection risks to patients.
