Trevo Pro Microcatheters Recalled for Potential Endotoxin Contamination

Stryker Neurovascular is recalling Trevo Pro 14 and 18 Microchethers worldwide due to non-compliance with endotoxin testing standards. High endotoxin levels could cause fever, shock, and meningitis.

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 an FDA Class II recall involving medical devices used in critical procedures where endotoxin contamination could cause serious complications (fever, shock, meningitis). However, no illnesses or injuries have been reported in the source text, and the hazard is theoretical—devices may exceed acceptable limits but contamination is not confirmed. Per the rubric, this fits Score 3: risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Stryker Neurovascular is recalling 648 Trevo Pro 14 Microcatheter (Catalog 90231) and Trevo Pro 18 Microcatheter (Catalog 90238) units worldwide. These devices did not meet the minimum sample size required for endotoxin testing during manufacturing and are out of compliance with the AAMI ST72 standard. As a result, they may exceed acceptable endotoxin levels.

High endotoxin levels could increase the risk of fever, shock, and aseptic meningitis during medical use. Stryker Neurovascular initiated this recall due to the manufacturing compliance issue and potential hazard.

The affected devices have been distributed globally to healthcare facilities in all U.S. states and territories, as well as numerous countries including Australia, Canada, and throughout Europe and Asia.
