Plain-English summary
Maquet Cardiovascular, LLC is recalling specific batches of Maquet Getinge-BO-TOP 13901 RAPID RESPONSE custom tubing sets used for extracorporeal circulation. The recall is due to a potential defect in the sterilization process. The closed stopcock and non-vented cap configuration may prevent the flow of humidity and ethylene oxide gas into the fluid path between the closed port and the cap. As a result, the Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of the stopcock ports cannot be assured.
The affected product is distributed nationwide. The specific batch numbers involved in this recall are 3000044426, 3000049067, 3000053796, 3000054622, 3000067221, 3000067796, 3000072147, and 3000074175. The material code for the product is 701054874.
