Maquet Getinge Mayo Pulmonary Pack Recall Due to Sterility Assurance Concerns

Maquet Cardiovascular is recalling Mayo Pulmonary Packs because a design feature may prevent sterilization gas from reaching all parts, 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 risk-of-harm product (sterility failure in a medical device) where injury has not yet been reported, fitting the 'High' severity criteria.

Plain-English summary

Maquet Cardiovascular, LLC is recalling Maquet Getinge-BO-T 44201 Mayo Pulmonary Packs (Material: 701064834) used for extracorporeal circulation. The recall affects batch numbers 3000041415, 3000044885, and 3000077738, which were distributed nationwide.

The recall is issued because 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, meaning the product may not be fully sterile.

Healthcare facilities and users should stop using the affected products and contact Maquet Cardiovascular for further instructions on return or replacement. This recall is classified as Class II by the FDA.
