Plain-English summary

Arrow International is recalling AGBA PICC G4 Stylet kits and Arrow VPS access kits, covering REF DLX-45563-VPSB, DLX-45563-VPSC, ASK-04001-UCHD1 and ASK-04001-UCHS1 among the catalog numbers listed in the recall notice. The action covers 11,358 units.

Lidocaine, bupivacaine and 0.9% sodium chloride, the subject of a supplier recall, were included in the kits and sets. According to the manufacturer, the supplier was found to have quality issues and limited reports of drug ineffectiveness, and if sterility of a water-based injectable product is compromised this could lead to serious or life-threatening injuries. The FDA classified the action as Class I, its most serious classification.

Distribution was nationwide in the United States across a large number of states. The kits are supplied to healthcare facilities rather than sold to consumers.

Facilities should identify affected stock using the REF numbers, UDI-DI codes and lot numbers in the recall notice, quarantine it, and follow the instructions issued by Arrow International.
