Maquet Getinge Custom Tubing Sets Recalled Due to Sterility Assurance Concerns
Maquet Cardiovascular is recalling specific custom tubing sets for extracorporeal circulation because a design configuration may prevent proper sterilization, potentially compromising sterility.
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 potential failure to ensure sterility in a medical device used for extracorporeal circulation, which poses a risk of infection. This aligns with the rubric for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.
Plain-English summary
Maquet Cardiovascular, LLC is recalling Maquet Getinge-BEQ-T-22800 custom tubing sets for extracorporeal circulation (ECC). The recall involves specific batch numbers 3000046489 and 3000055506, which were distributed nationwide.
The recall is issued because the closed stopcock and non-vented cap configuration on these devices may prevent the flow of humidity and ethylene oxide gas into the fluid path during the sterilization process. As a result, the Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of the stopcock ports cannot be assured, meaning the devices may not be sterile when used.
Healthcare facilities and users of these specific tubing sets should stop using the affected units and contact Maquet Cardiovascular for further instructions on how to proceed with the recall.
