Medline Convenience Kits with Recalled Swan-Ganz Catheters

Medline Convenience kits containing Swan-Ganz catheters are being recalled due to leaks and breakage of the proximal injectate lumen hub, which may lead to infection, medication loss, and blood loss.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II medical device recall involving a structural defect (lumen hub failure) in critical cardiovascular catheters that may result in serious harm including infection, medication loss, and blood loss. Although no reported illnesses or injuries are stated in the source, the risk-of-harm nature of the defect and the Class II classification warrant a Severe rating.
