Plain-English summary

Arrow International is recalling the Access Tray, REF ASK-04001-MC3. The action covers 8,265 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 trays are supplied to healthcare facilities rather than sold to consumers.

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