FDA (Devices) recall action 83337
The FDA (Devices) publishes a recall like this one as 28 separate product records. They share a firm, a date and a cause; this page is all of them in one place, so the scale of the action is visible rather than spread across 28 pages.
The action is being initiated due to complaints received concerning the molded tip of the tunneler breaking or is damaged during the placement procedure of the catheter.
