Why these products were recalled

An upward trend of complaints in which the Temperature Monitoring Adapter (TMA), located on the Affinity Fusion Oxygenator, had come loose from the oxygenator either during pre-procedure perfusion set-up or post-procedure when disassembling the perfusion circuit.

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.
