Plain-English summary
Arrow International Inc. is recalling 121 units of the Continuous Peripheral Nerve Block Catheter Kit and Set. The recall was initiated after a labeling inconsistency was discovered in the product packaging.
The lidstock of the kit states that it contains a stimulator cable with a 1.5mm socket. However, the kits actually contain a stimulator cable with a 1.5mm pin. This discrepancy between the label and the physical product constitutes the reason for the recall.
The affected products are identified by product number AB-07200 Stimulator Adapter Cable and specific lot numbers: RF0059570, RF2069779, RF0088984, RF2108983, RF0128588, RF3052266, and RF1071764. These kits were distributed worldwide, including nationwide in the United States and in Singapore. The FDA has classified this recall as Class II, indicating that use of or exposure to the product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences.
