Arrow recalls pressure injectable catheter kits lacking critical safety checklists for central line procedures. Missing guides may lead to errors during medical use.
Products do not contain the Central Venous Catheter Placement Procedures Note or the Central Line Insertion Checklist, which is a tool intended to guide clinicians in the use of best practices during central line insertions.
Arrow is recalling pressure injectable catheter kits that don't include essential safety checklists for central line procedures. This could lead to medical errors if clinicians skip the required steps.
The kits lack the Central Venous Catheter Placement Procedures Note and Central Line Insertion Checklist. These tools help clinicians follow best practices during critical medical procedures. Without them, errors could occur during catheter insertion.
Healthcare providers using these catheter kits for central line insertions are most at risk. Patients receiving care from these kits may be affected if procedures are performed incorrectly.
Check for the model number ASK-458: 13F16K0236 on the kit packaging. These kits were sold by Arrow International Inc. for central line procedures.
Look for the model number ASK-45802-PHMW 13F16K0236 on the kit packaging to confirm if it's recalled.
The kits do not contain the Central Venous Catheter Placement Procedures Note or Central Line Insertion Checklist, which are tools to guide clinicians during central line insertions.
The recall record does not specify a remedy, so check the kit packaging for the model number to confirm if it's recalled.
The recall record does not mention a risk of serious injury, so the danger level is low risk.
