Plain-English summary
Degania Silicone, Ltd. is recalling Cardinal Health Jackson-Pratt Channel Drains, 15FR, Full flutes (PN: JP-2188). The affected units are 15FR and 19FR round fluted drain channel drains. The recall covers 3,040 units distributed nationwide. The specific lot codes involved are P1849762, P1836201, and P1864643.
The recall is being issued because the drain channel may break during use, specifically at the connection point between the clear tube and the white profile part. This breakage is most likely to occur during removal of the device. If the drain breaks, additional surgical intervention is required to remove the broken end from the patient's body.
Healthcare facilities and consumers should check their inventory for these specific lot codes and stop using the affected devices. If a patient has an affected drain in place, medical professionals should be aware of the potential for breakage during removal.
