Medtronic Arterial Cannulae Recalled Due to Unsealed Sterile Packaging
Medtronic Perfusion Systems is recalling multiple arterial cannula models worldwide due to potential for unsealed sterile packing. Compromised packaging may allow contamination of devices intended for clinical use.
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: This is a Class II FDA recall for a medical device with compromised sterile barrier integrity. No illnesses or injuries are reported in the source, but unsealed sterile packaging on surgical devices presents a risk of contamination and infection. The score reflects risk-of-harm for products where injury has not yet been reported.
Plain-English summary
Medtronic Perfusion Systems is recalling multiple models of arterial cannulae distributed worldwide. The recall affects 13,033 units across various model numbers and sizes, including DLP Curved Metal Tip, DLP One-Piece Pediatric, EOPA Elongated One-Piece, and Select Series variants.
The recalled devices have a potential for unsealed sterile packaging. Unsealed sterile packing compromises the sterile barrier of the medical device, which is critical for maintaining device sterility prior to use in clinical and surgical applications.
