Maquet Getinge-BEQ-T 53400 Adaption Pack Recall for Sterility Assurance Issues

Maquet Cardiovascular is recalling specific batches of Custom Tubing Sets for Extracorporeal Circulation because the stopcock design may prevent proper sterilization.

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 where the Sterility Assurance Level cannot be assured, creating a risk of infection or harm, but the source text does not report any specific illnesses or injuries, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products without reported injury.

Plain-English summary

Maquet Cardiovascular, LLC is recalling specific batches of Maquet Getinge-BEQ-T 53400 Adaption Packs (Material: 709000213). These products are Custom Tubing Sets used for Extracorporeal Circulation (ECC). The recall affects batch numbers 3000047192, 3000049558, and 3000067521, which were distributed nationwide.

The recall was initiated 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. This design issue means the Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of the stopcock ports cannot be assured during the sterilization process.

Healthcare facilities and users of these products should stop using the affected batches immediately. The source text does not provide specific instructions for disposal or replacement, but users should contact the manufacturer or their supplier for guidance on handling the recalled items.
