Plain-English summary
Wilson-Cook Medical Inc. is recalling 8 units of COOK MEDICAL Captura Serrated Biopsy Forceps with Spike (model DBF-2.4SN-230SP-20-S). The affected units are identified by Lot Number W4035256 and were distributed in France, Ireland, and Japan.
The recall was initiated because the Captura Serrated Forceps with Spike were mislabeled as Captura Serrated Large Forcep-No Spike (model DBF-2.4SL-230-20-S). Additionally, the Captura Serrated Large Forcep-No Spike units were mislabeled as Captura Serrated Forceps with Spike. This labeling error could lead to the use of the wrong instrument during medical procedures.
Healthcare facilities and distributors in the affected regions should stop using the recalled products and contact Wilson-Cook Medical for further instructions.
