Why these products were recalled

Nipro Medical Corporation, Miami, FL recalled their AquaLiner Hydrophilic Guidewire because the wires contain insufficient lubricity which causes them to get stuck in the housing and become nonfunctional.

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
