Maquet Getinge Children's ECC Tubing Sets Recalled for Sterility Assurance Concerns

Maquet Cardiovascular is recalling specific Children's Large ECC Packs because a design feature 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 medical device where sterility cannot be assured, posing a risk of infection or harm, but no specific injuries or illnesses are reported in the source text.

Plain-English summary

Maquet Cardiovascular, LLC is recalling the Maquet Getinge-BEQ-TOP 49101 Childrens Large ECC Pack (Material: 701067069R01). The recall affects units with Batch Number 3000059724 that were distributed nationwide.

The recall was initiated because the closed stopcock and non-vented cap configuration on the custom tubing sets may prevent the flow of humidity and ethylene oxide gas into the fluid path during sterilization. As a result, the Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of the stopcock ports cannot be assured, meaning the devices may not be sterile.

Healthcare facilities and consumers should stop using these specific tubing sets immediately. Users should contact Maquet Cardiovascular for instructions on how to return or dispose of the affected products.
