Plain-English summary
Terumo Cardiovascular Systems (Terumo CVS) is recalling certain lots of Hercules 360 Universal Stabilizing Arms. The recall involves 260 distributed devices with serial numbers ranging from 70194 through 70504. The devices are reusable stainless steel stabilizing arms with a top mount and 360-degree rotation.
The recall is being issued because the two pins that hold the sleeve attached to the distal end of the device may come loose. This can cause the pins and sleeve to separate from the device. While the arm can still function without these components, there is a potential for the loose parts to fall into the surgical site.
Terumo CVS has identified 16 domestic consignees and 30 international consignees. The source text does not specify specific actions for consumers or patients, as the devices are distributed to medical facilities.
