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 high-risk medical device used in open heart surgery with a reported assembly defect. While no injuries are explicitly reported in the source text, the potential for harm in a critical surgical context aligns with the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Datascope Corporation is recalling 21 kits of Custom Tubing Packs with Bioline Coating (Part Number 709000058, Lot 3000033848). These medical devices are used in open heart surgery to connect patients to heart-lung machines for blood oxygenation and carbon dioxide removal. The affected units were distributed to the state of California.

The recall was initiated after a complaint received on January 1, 2017, reported that the pigtail on line 2 of the oxygenator was assembled to the port where the yellow cap and clear cap remained on the center port. This assembly error could potentially affect the function of the extracorporeal perfusion circulation system during surgery.

Healthcare facilities that received these specific tubing packs should stop using them and contact Datascope Corporation for instructions on return or replacement. Consumers are not expected to have these products in their homes, as they are specialized medical devices used in surgical settings.
