Description

Teleflex HORIZON Microclip Titanium Ligating Clips w/tape, REF 005200; for use in general surgical procedures that require vessel or tissue ligation

Reason

Teleflex LLC is initiating this voluntary field corrective action because the clip cartridges for the affected product is missing a key feature that restricts the application of the clip to the applier. With this step feature missing on the cartridge, the clip is mounted in a more variable position, allowing the clips to load farther back in the clip applier jaw grooves. This may potentially result in inappropriate or inadequate clip application to vascular structures.
