What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Plain-English summary

Xeridiem Mediem Medical Devices Inc is recalling 36 units of the EndoVive 3s Low Profile Balloon Kits, Part Number M005489350 (XMD P/N 70-0050-522), Lot Number 930142. The recall is limited to nationwide distribution to Massachusetts only.

The recall is due to a feeding (reflux) valve leakage issue. The feeding valve may close inconsistently or in a delayed manner when an extension set is disconnected from the device. This defect allows feeding solution or gastric contents to leak out of the device in some instances.

The EndoVive 3s Low Profile Balloon is intended to provide gastric access through a gastrointestinal stoma tract for enteral feeding, medication administration, and gastric decompression in adult and pediatric patients. Consumers and healthcare providers should stop using the affected devices and contact the manufacturer for instructions.
