Why these products were recalled

An increase in complaints related to an inability to advance the guidewire through the lumen of the device for certain batches. There is evidence of the polyurethane layer delaminating and in some instances material detachment in the catheters inner lining.

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.
