Terumo SOLOPATH Re-Collapsible Access System Recalled for Tip Dislodgement Risk

Terumo Medical Corporation is recalling 1,431 SOLOPATH Re-Collapsible Access Systems because the tip may dislodge from the sheath, potentially compromising the device's smooth transition.

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.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a medical device with a structural defect (tip dislodgement) that poses a risk of harm, but the source text does not report any specific injuries or illnesses, fitting the criteria for a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported.
