Description

HYFRECATOR 2000 HANDPIECE SHEATH, REF/Part Number 7-796-19, Rx ONLY, STERILE, Single Patient Use -- CONMED CORPORATION, 525 FRENCH ROAD UTICA, NY 13502. --- There is no problem with the Hyfrecator 2000 Electrosurgical Units or with cases of P/N 7-796-19 sold in cases as P/N 7-796-19BX or P/N 7-796-19CS.

Reason

For over a year, the Accessory Packages in the Hyfrecator 2000 ESU cartons were packaged in error by the manufacturer with non-sterile P/N 7-796-19 Handpiece Sheaths in pouches that were labeled as Sterile. This could cause an end user to use a non-sterile sheath as if it were Sterile.
